Shame….

Don't depair,
it's often the case that the gate person has been put in a bad mood or someone got out of bed the wrong side.
l remember volunteering to marshall a classic car show and turning up in my 940 the organiser said "Hardly a Classic is it"......he of course owned an E type as well as other variants.My reply was "My TR4 is not available and my Amazon is still being restored........ and l have come to help you".
I find Volvo folk very helpful and extremely friendly so please be patient, l live near Evesham so we could compare notes on the Amazon...we are not too far away.
