    Smile Shropshire/Mid-Wales Meet-up 10/2/2013

    Hi folks just thought it might be nice to have another gathering of the Volvo clan, not sure yet of the venue, as we have had few now at The Two Henry's Shrewsbury and I was wondering whether we wanted to try some different places and move the meets about a bit. This would make it easier for the more distant members that, they would have a few meets that could be a little closer and would spice things up a bit with some different scenery and possible photo shoots

    Anyway I have my thinking cap on and I'm also open to ideas and look forward to seeing you all again soon

    Great place for meets

    I've just joined recently and have been waiting to show off my 97 v70 T5 in frost green. Can't offer much of a show of strength though as i'm having some airflow problems at the mo. In response to your request, I believe Southend on sea, Essex would be the perfect place. The car scene used to be amazing here so lets bring southend alive with the sound of T5.....
    happy new year to all and hope to see volvo muscle near me soon.

    Hello, and welcome, Southend on sea isn't really very close to the west midlands and Shropshire.

    Thank you. I know it's some distance for most but as you were saying, other people travel some distances for meets. It's just nice "sometimes" to show a different crowd what's under that 4ft bonnet. I would go to the top of scotland for the right meet.
