There I was, driving along the M5 from Birmingham to Exeter, doing a steady 75 in my fully-laden car. What did I see cruising up behind me? A white 480. As the car drew level the driver tooted his horn at me. Naturally, I waved and tooted back. I'm used top this sort of thing in my VW camper, but never before in a Volvo.
The car was a white J-reg ES and the driver looked to be in his autumn years. I'd be surprised if he's a regular here, but seeing a fellow enthusiast brought a little interest to my drive. Thanks!
