Default Auction and VOC National Rally 21st June

Some years ago Volvo gave the Volvo Owners Club a framed 850 BTCC shirt autographed by Rickard Rydell and Tim Harvey. This shirt is mounted on a blue background in a frame about 35 inches by 21 inches. Attached are two photos. It has been taken out of the frame as the shirt had come off the mountings but has been fixed.

This is a genuine item made for Volvo and has been in my possession since being passed to us by Volvo Car UK.

It will be auctioned at the club's National Rally at Thoresby Hall on Sunday 21st June 2009 and the proceeds presented to a charity.

Anyone who is not coming to the rally but interested can ask someone to bid on their behalf, but we will expect payment before handing it over.

Bob

Default Volvo 850 Racing Jacket

I have also received today from Volvo Car UK a genuine new 850 racing jacket.

This too will be auctioned at the National Rally and the proceeds will go to a local charity. (Lincolnshire Air Ambulance)

As the auctioneer it will be my first auction!
