    knew nothing about it until you posted this, but I could be tempted to take a trip down even though my car is far from show condition.

    I was considering it this year but I can't be bothered. They're doing BKV near Warwick next year, I'll attend that one instead.

    Did Lady Thong kibosh the Xc70 plan , I thought you might go down that route . They are really nice and you get a lot of motor for your money .

    Mind you , the one you have is a real nice piece of kit too , you might miss it .

    Cheers matey

    Noooo, we're still on the Volvo route. Either an XC70 or a V60, we're a year off or so off changing the motor so plenty of time to decide. The 50 walked the last MOT so we might well be pushing it in longer. Now we have an extra child (the niece) to shoehorn in the back of the motor we need a wider motor but the bank account needs a bit more stuffing before we splash out on another motor.
    I can see use having an XC70 personally, the higher stance gives more visibility, good for parking in a busy street

    About 110 miles for me, but even more for you. Only visiting on the Sunday if I make it.
