Volvo 2020 selling out fast

Post by dragonflyjewels » Sun Mar 01, 2020 7:49 am

Saw zapcity's post and booked passes straight away. Did mine and Al's separately within minutes of one another and the receipt nos. are 12 different, so these aren't going to be available for long. Get your skates on if you want to join in !!

I got mine last night. I bet they're having a nightmare with the 'add car details' bit being missed (it did say don't worry, they'll contact you if you have missed it). I went straight to my phone to do it and there's no obvious option to add the note like there is on the laptop layout I don't think.

Anyways.....who else has theirs? :D

Now; just got to make the car useable for June. :)

Oh, it also said that you will be given a 'suggested' entrance to help with traffic backlog, in terms of convoying together. Perhaps they'll try and keep models together though anyway? I like the single file bit too. Much less chance for the chancers be desperately noticed and more hope of actually gaining the record.

Just checked the website and it's been updated to a postponement to June 2021 :cryhard: :badmood: Was so looking forward to it, but it's probably for the best otherwise we undoubtedly wouldn't have been allowed out of our cars at Bruntingthorpe.
I was really hoping Snazzy would be finished in time for it but now there's hardly any rush to get her done. Currently got Al working on mudflaps as one of hers has gone missing between the two bodyshops. I'll start a new thread on the subject.
