I wonder if we can convert Doggy to the Volvo brand? shouldn't be too difficult - might need some "lifestyle adjustments" though........pair of Farah slacks and some slip-on shoes etc..

Re: Happy Birrrrrthdayyy tooooo meeeeeee


Well it does seem to be the natural route of progression as we get older, I'm beginning to think that it's inevitable that everyone on here will eventually own a Volvo

Gotta say, I was born old!! I looked at a V70 when I bought the pug estate, but they were either too old or way outa my budget at the time. Had they been more affordable (or had I been considerably richer) I'd probably have been a decade long owner by now...

Welcome back there Teamy!
You had me worried for a time there until someone (Welly I think) said you'd been seen on Planet Ovlov.
I've got some zippy boots (couldn't deal with laces for a while there) do they count?

Maybe we're just too lenient on here

Oh crap, where do I get Farrah slacks from here?Welly wrote:....pair of Farah slacks and some slip-on shoes etc..

What is up with other car forums? I don't even bother with the coupé club any more as I was getting the impression my opinions counted for nothing because I don't actually drive a coupé (ok, there are some great guys on there but one or two I could mention...). I've not posted anything on the Toyotter club since before I had the cat sorted (anyway only 1 person was answering my questions - me) - "rah rah rah Japanese engineering rah rah excellent build quality rah rah another new engine rah..." I must admit I still skim it occasionally when I need a good laugh (btw they just emailed me an invitation to some Japanese car meet in Beaulieu - presumably there'll be a fleet of tow trucks ready outsideteamster1975 wrote:Dai I'm on there too, mjbv40.

And needless to say Dai you would never have joined here, i toyed with the vulva (oh err misses) idea before getting the 406 but at the time my father outlaw had a V40 estate with fooked head gasket... Decided to have a go himself so got the head skimmed and bought all the kit to do it.
When it was all back together he called me down with jump leads he turned it over i heard a (POP) and it never ran again... Think it cost him about £600 in the end then he scrapped it.
Now drives a focus!
