Meeting---All 480's welcome

chriskay · Post by **chriskay** » Wed Apr 06, 2005 10:07 pm

Hi,all. The Volvo T5 club is having a meeting & you're all invited. A lot of us have previously owned 480's & still love them. We're meeting at the

Stretton Fox
Tarporley Rd.
Warrington
WA4 4BW

2 p.m. Sunday 1st. May.
It's just off junction 10, M56.
T5 owners are about as lunatic as 480 owners. I went to a meet last Saturday at the Avon Park dragstrip near Stratford. We had 23 T5's there & many of us did the 1/4 mile run. If you want to get an idea, look at the website.

Cheers, Chris.

Not really. I have passed a police car on the bypass before because he was doing 60, everyone else was staying behind him but I just sailed by.

Just drove past there today. For those who don't know, the entrance to the Stretton Fox is actually off the roundabout over Jn. 10, between the Warrington Rd. & the M56 Eastbound.
Cheers, Chris.

I'll drop by if I get the chance, but depending on work etc I'm not at all sure at the moment.

We had a great meet; 17 T5's there, including several 'R's. Between us we must have spent loads on food & drink, but after about 3 hours the landlord asked us to leave; said we were taking up too much parking space

Shan't be using there again. Pics. & writeups at www.volvot5.co.uk/forums
Still hoping to put in an appearance at the North Wales meet.
Cheers, Chris.
