    Yep will be attending the Gaydon meet, not sure of which cars will be there though at this time and how many, as I may be able to get the V70R sorted so Jayne can bring that too.

    I'll not be going, as I've been banned from volvotuning for criticing jays calendar.

    Funny thing I'd not used volvotuning for a good month or so as I as more southerners / friends are on vpc, where as volvotuning is mostly northerners.

    I spoke with nosh but heard nothing back, so I just left if there.

    Love the idea that one can get banned for dissing someone's Photoshop skills

    Yes VPC has a high percentage of southern lads but it's not their fault they were born into the gentry

    In theory the gul will be on the road, 940 is mot'd and insured, so is the sonic.

    When they do the world record, i could take 5.

    But yes would be funny if they were 1 short although I think it may be many short

    49 on the vpc list,not looked on vt yet.

    I wouldn't worry too much about Jay, not the first time he's chucked his dummy out, not sure he still has too much too do with VT's running these days, but what I heard could be wrong, it was second hand.
