I really need to carry a camera with me at all times.

Yesterday i saw a silver 340 with a roof rack, and a light green 340 passed me.
This morning i saw a burgundy 1.7GL towing a trailer, seems there are quite a few round my way.

Plus non photo'd bonus content a chocolate brown 244 this morning and a black one over the weekend, proper tidy it was too.

I'm thinking of putting a camera on my dash to record all the drink drivers I almost hit every night. There's this lovely 244 that I pass every day, driven by a young guy too but he never responds to my thumbs-up. Maybe I'm being too weird :shock:

Y'see this is what annoys the bejeebus out of me :evil: I can go to a classic car show over here and see tens and tens of MG's, loads of Mini's and literally hundreds of Jags, Bentleys and Bristols (wa-hey!!!) and even the occasional SAAB, but any Volvos? Nah, no chance!
Is it because they were never popular? Nope, sold millions of them.
Is it because they don't fit the image of a "classic car"? Possibly...
Is it because they were never deemed desirable enough? Well we all like them, and certainly the driftkids do....

I have only ever seen one other 360 on the road here.

Mind you, it would help if there was a Volvo Owners Club in this state......

Sorry Rant over......

360 GLS with 44k on the clock and no rust. The owner suggests that he wants to sell it so I gave him a V3M card :)
