The fight is on

Post by 990 »

I heard those infamous words today - 'we have too many cars, one has to go, the oldest is that red 360 of yours'

So the fight is on, I need good arguments here or one of you may end up with a red 360GLT (which I don't want).

So SAVE MY 360 :? :? :?

Is that even possible?

You could try pointing out that you are doing your bit for the environment by keeping lots of older cars - both by reducing the number in use at any one time (cos you can only drive one at a time) and by not causing more new cars to be built. possibly.

Ok, the argument is, that not only being the best car of them all, the 360 has the best resource and back up online via this website Volvo300Mania, making the future classic a better bet to keep, due to the dedication of the members to finding parts, providing help and info and also the atmosphere! Case Closed.

Ah well, true, most not all, don't it seems! Well then, try the idea of getting them to come up with the idea of keeping it, get them to like it, (or hate the others,) but let them think it's their choice!

Retro pimpage! Maybe they're coming round to the idea that they are luxury future classics!? Or you've found a rare breed of woman mate, one that likes 300's!
