No can do it's my anniversary and I'm away :(

Congrats on the anniversary, and it seems like the Guls are destined to never get together. If next Saturday is a prob for other peeps as well, then please have the meet when it suits the majority, rather than just me. I can try and make other weekends, with some help from my family in terms of looking after the kids etc.

We just need to make the final arrangements now, as I was planning on meeting TC near Wigan, and where are you from again? 11'ish, but anytime after that wouldn't matter, and DT haven't replied to an e-mail that I sent them, so I might try again.

I've only met a few peeps that are going on Saturday before, but I went to an Alfa meet last Sunday where I'd never met anyone before(and I was in a Volvo). Think some sort of brief intro of everyone there should be the first thing we do, so we know who we all are.............for a few seconds and then I'll forget.

Seriously though.....feeling quite bad - one minute you were there & the next you'd disappeared. I thought you pulled off to get something to drink. :(

Wondered what happened to you TC. Sorry to hear that, but you're Home now I presume. Your car pulled away from me when we drove upto the A483, and I coudn't keep up tbh.

Sadly no because not only did I not have any tools with me (Really need to sort that out) but when it popped off the jubilee clip must have fallen off somewhere before I limped it into the layby.

Had serious problems after the guy had refitted the top pipe for me as it had started over fueling again to compensate for the lost pipe, thankfully after a couple of miles it corrected itself. I decided after that to just trundle the rest of the way home at 60,lol.. Got in, had something to eat and then fell asleep... just woke up now and I'm sure the back of my neck is burnt to hell again. It was a great meet and it was also nice to see some old faces again and have a good laugh, must do it again soon.

Nice idea but, I don't think much will happen till 29th september at Avon, as people are busy with hols and other events

Well, i'll be going pod sometime next month (on a sat), really enjoyed not having to wear a helmet.

would like to put down a pod time, but money's tight and have retro rides and trax coming up so avon end of september is likely to be my next 1/4 action, would be nice to be helmet free

I think it would help, as it feels more natural.

and, when theres no issues, they get people through very quickly.

Biff, let's do another one soonish then. Immingham and T5R Pete couldn't make today either, so when in the next couple of months would be OK with you?

That would be great!! Mid September is a problem for me as I'm getting married on the 15th.
I had so many people phone me to tell me there we're a group of fast looking volvo's in Tweeks & where was I? :(
Big sulks yesterday!!
My best mate phoned & said his bro had seen a black & yellow Volvo race car & a touring car. My mate said he was so excited about it. Bless him, he's autistic & is a big fan of the bullion & volvo's after a run up the link road.
Photo's & weather look great boys..
Really am gutted but maybe we could organize to meet at the orm run to llandudno? Pictures would be fantastic up there.

As much as I'm really going to get hammered now by my fellow Volvo fans I'm also a big fan of vw vans & campers. I'm having a vw split screen micro bus to take me & my boys to the ceremony.
The bullion will be bringing us home from the hotel though rest assured! Not sure the mrs would be up for the car show outside but there will be some tasty motors owned by mates so maybe we could? Lol
Thanks Stephen & the rest of you. The bullion will be having its boot full of parts fitted soon.

Guys forgot to say that I m Canadien from Montreal originally hence my mixed accent and my first car when I was 16 was a 1982 Chevy Elcamino with a 350cui 4 speed manual and had to fill the back box full of snow in the winter for traction reason lol Probably why I ve got the unique Volcamino T5 lol

Yeah basically the whole braking system needs replacing, I knew before I came, it's been ok for trundling to work and back but for the er spirited driving we where doing it didnt like it too much,lol. After the hour or so's wait in the layby the brakes cooled sufficiently to be silent the rest of the way home.

Yeah you too bud, I dont get to many meets any more but it was great to get out again. Yes the brakes are top of the list as soon as I scrape enough money together, I dread to think how much it's going to cost because the whole lot is shot (handbrake as well).

I used these on mine http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Volvo-850-2-3-T5-R-94-96-Front-Rear-Brake-Discs-Pads-/180678245515?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Car+Make%3AVolvo%7CModel%3A850%7CCars+Type%3A 2.3+T5-R&hash=item2a11433c8b, I know what most will say, but I have caned these brakes over the last year and they are proving themselves an excellent buy, was concerned about warping but other than a bit of drone induced by the grooves when giving it some seriously hard braking, day to day there smooth and quiet. Kit is front and rear disc's and pads, you'll just need shoe's for the handbrake if yours are shot and not too dear in cost, these are 302's so caliper brackets would be needed or you could get the 280 versions if you like,sell a splitter or 2 and your sorted hopefully

p.s. could be interested in one of you splitters shortly

That's not a bad price TBH but sadly those fronts wont fit mine as I have 302's on the front of mine, I'll get a quote off Rufe first before I go buying from anywhere else. Have to wait until the end of August first though. I've had a set of those on one of my 850's and they where pretty damn good, never had a problem with them.

sorry have edited link as put up drilled not dimpled discs before, new link are 302 dimpled and grooved set as on my car so won't crack out from the holes, would be interested of what rufe would quote volvo wise and what sort of discount he offers as I'm considering using him for my future volvo parts
