Hi All,

Things are looking up. My bro in law will be scrapping his 480 ES next year when the MOT and tax run out just in time for the meeting.

Perhaps this time we can look at nominal amounts for bits which can go towards the meet and the removal of the shell?

Keep the names coming we need more commitment from those who have not responded yet!

Regards

Chris

sorry questions questions questions lol
A 480 EUROPE meeting can last a weekend if you want to. It depends on if you like it or not. Some previous meetings were too short... Ours in May will officially start at Saturday and will last untill Monday. But some people will be there even on Friday evening (soon more info on website and in newsletter). And we don't make a 24/24 program so you're free to do whatever you wanna do (to a certain level off cours :wink: )

And we are not talking about 480's, also about other Volvo's. No I'm kiddin' ;) Off course the will be talks about cars but also other subjects like movies, music, traveling, jokes, politics, etc. (at random order)

See you all in May! :D
