Thumbs up Very Vriendly Volvo Vriends

Hello there,

just thought I'd write a happy tale.

I've only bought my first Volvo 6 months ago and pretty much straight away joined the Club and this forum.
All the queries I had were replied to almost instantly and all had good usefull info in it.
Great!

I also got some tips from a fellow Irish driver and before I knew it, after one little PM, I found Brendan,a very friendly and knowledgeable man, at my doorstep with his toolbox to help me service my 850.
We had a great morning in which I learned a lot about my car and it gave me enough confidence to buy parts and fix a few things myself. Checking oil was all I'd done before!

So the moral of this story is that Volvo drivers are passionate about their cars and, what's more: genuine nice people!

Keep up the good work lads,

Al

After one pm the other day to andyg on here, I know have myself a free 850 haynes manual, along with some spark plugs. (well, hopefully in a few days after the post arrives)

What a nice gentleman, so thank you very much kind sir.
