Obviously ignore the first, my old car :)

Hoping to get some sideways shots at sometime. The new car is so much easier to slide!

Great idea about the photos.
i will post mine as soon as the thumper gets back from getting a new exhaust.

PS there a few brisbane players out there and it would be good if we could organise a meet for the aussie crew.

Hi

I am a newbie on this forum. Since 3 months ago I bought a 340 dl, I am a fan of this car.
I'm from Hungary, Budapest. We have a forum of the hungarian volvo 300s, with beautiful cars. If you want to see it: http://www.veteranvolvo.hu/cgi-bin/yabb ... 1117736359
(sorry, if you have already known this page)

I am going to London next weekend. Can you tell me some places where I can bye some brochures or small accessories? I plan to get some gift or souvenir for my car :)
I look for used or second hand accessories first of all.

Thanks a lot

I have almost forgot.... mileage: 119900 km

Erm, that's a tricky one tbh, as I couldn't honestly suggest a shop or place in or around London to look for accessories or brochures for the 300 range. Scrapyards are your best places to have a look for any rare small items you might be able to take home, but here in the UK one of the best places for brochures etc is Ebay, or another are car rallies and events. Hope you have a good time and welcome to V3M.
