Cheers Dan, I bought a 2 month old ETM from ebay and got Volmech to fit it for me and sort software and it`s back to flying again lol
I would defo be interested in a local meet, have tried asking my landlord if I can have them at my detailing studio again but he still being arsey after over 100 cars turned up for the Vagcars meet
Big thanks to the cars previous owner Jamesy12345 for giving me a spare alloy he still had for the car, dropped straight to my powder coater to get it to match the others on the car
Latest addition to the car is a genuine front strut brace again thanks to Jamesy for giving me the heads up on getting one
Not sure whether to get it powder coated or just leave it as is

At least you have finally got it back up and running to how it should be.
Yeah I've heard something about that a few times lol, Sure we would be able to arrange somewhere local to have a meet, But then if it's only volvo cars/owners then I can't imagine it would be as many as 100 turn up.
Will have to pop up one day with the volvo, Some ££££ bag scratched it before I took it off the road, Could do with seeing if it could be buffed out with anything or if it needs painting and to try get some pointers for when it comes to cleaning the old bus
I hate Silver.
....but after seeing so many of these nice in silver I'm starting to think it's the best colour for them!
Top work.

Just not keen on Silver normally, boring and common these days. But as I said I think these cars look superb in Silver! Probably my favourite colour for them atm.

I don't think that one on the right is meant to stay there
