Good morning, Alan. It was a pleasure to meet you personally yesterday, too; also Elizabeth (aka 'Snow White').

It was also a treat to see both 'Great Aunt Maud' and 'Delores' in the metal. That they completed the journey without issue comes as no surprise and is a just reward for the efforts that you have made to bring them up to the condition in which they stand today. They made a handsome pair parked side by side in the sunshine!

We are pleased that you had a good trip home. You are both using your cars in the manner Volvo intended, and prove conclusively that they remain a practical proposition on today's roads half a century or more after they left the factory.

Looking forward to next time, possibly even the 'National'?

Regards, John (and Linda).

PS - Did you note the V70's ridiculously large turning circle (that we had earlier discussed) as I pulled out of the car park? We would have got round in one with room to spare in a RWD Volvo! J.
