Have drawn on the back of an envelope a graph of the numbers signed up so far each month and then drawn a line on wards until May. So I sort of calculate you will have 90 Volvo 480 owners signed to attend by May. Lets see over the coming few months if it plateaus off, keeps on its steady climb upwa...

Re: International Meet up - 17/18/19 May 2024 - Bruggen
I have finally signed up! I am so excited! 😊 Is there a UK convoy group which I can tag along with? What method of crossing the channel are we all using? Excellent!

Hello. Of the UK people signed up to attend, have any of you decided or booked up your method of crossing the channel ? Ferry from Hull seems quite expensive. Cheers, Richard. Hi Richard - I have just booked what used to be Eurotunnel from Folkestone to Calais. It's now called Le Shuttle. They have...

Re: Any C30 owners?
I was surprised how few I saw in Norway and Sweden - I did see one in the Faroe Islands though!
I think about 220,000 were sold world wide - almost 3 times the number of 480s. I would buy a nice low mileage petrol one if I found one.
