Hello Roy,
Have you got your TGB1314 now ?,
Whats the constuction of the back body like ?
the signals and ambulance bodyed modals seem to have amazingly low milages might look at one for a off road camper ?
Now I have one of these volvos and see the value for money I want them all.
one for tank hunting , one for sleeping in , and an other for offroad .
Cheers
Cliff

Roy's lack of Volvo

Hi Cliff,

Should be able to collect after I return from holiday in 2 week's time, :(
meanwhile planning the camper conversion as discussed with Dennis in other post....

Any plans yet for where you'll take yours to offroad it? I've always fancied going over for a couple of the French offroad rallies - Rallye Des Cimes was always fantastic up in the mountains....how about that? Team C303 maybe - sure we could get Richard interested in that trip!

Where/who did you get your Volvo from in Sweden? I'm sussing out potential suppliers for future projects over there, now Richard is no longer importing them himself - guess we'll just do it ourselves.

Hello Roy,
The TGB will give you something to look forward to after you hols.
me and the lads tend to go greenlaning in wales strata,white house around nant-i-moc and senneybridge loads of old routes camping on the trail and a good laugh with me mates.
I brought my TGB13 via the swedish verstion of autotrader phoned did the deal drove it back via newcastle.
I have since found other dealers for TGBs.
after the reg docs arrive next week its off to a fun day in telford to give it and me a run out, then wales for a weekend in september.
A TGB raid to France sounds fun .
all the best have a good holiday
Cliff

UK TGBs

Definitely a case for a TGB/C3 get together in the UK soon (I need to get mine first!) so let's keep in touch via this list.

A meet in Central England might work best - Richard could dust off his ear defenders and make the long trek south again maybe?

I wonder who ended up with the blue civvy C303 sold on eBay last month for £3750??

I'm talking to Volvo Trucks UK tomorrow re C306 parts (for George in the first instance) so I'll keep you posted on their response...
