There speaks a man who's never seen what a well set-up X40 can do on the A64 ;-)

It really is Volvo country though - although I suspect that's cos you're not so far from Antz and he cross-breeds them into new free-range species.

Hahaha I can imagine what a sorted X40 can do mines pretty impressive in standard form I had fun with a clown in a old Range Rover on the A1 yesterday. I took him by surprise lol

I know I can't be far from Antz's breeding program.

Ah youre not far from my neck of the woods! Im just outside Scarborough so always along the A64. The A64 is a horrific road during the day for traffic but in the dead of night its a good long run.

All Im saying is I once did Leeds city centre to Scarborough in 30 minutes in my T4 at 2am.

If you want to see Volvo Country you should go to Malton or the small village of Slingsby. Everyone in Malton seems to drive either a Volvo or a BMW but in Slingsby is where Hutton Brothers indy Volvo dealers is and I swear to god that every driveway has a Volvo on it supplied by Hutton Brothers.

If youre about one night in Scarborough, pop over and ill get the kettle on! Cant take you out in the T4 because its still stuck at the garage in pieces but I can take you for a spin in the 240 T5 >=)

I think clear markers would look abit out of place, thinking of going smoked but quite like the orange standard ones

30 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is some going

I'm 30 minutes away from Malton. I'm in between with wiggington and Sutton on the forest.

If I'm free one night I'll definitely call over for a ride in the 240 T5 Antz's
