Volvos for all

So me and my best mate also a fanatical Volvo fan went on the hunt for a Volvo for under £150 that could do a 1200 mile long journey. Well that should be easy.

The Volvo gods were not looking after us after much searching of eBay and AutoTrader we started to panic, not got long felt before the rally. My mate went on to the Volvos Owners Club website and put a plea out for help.

In the begining

So signed up and eager to get going on the project, we went on the hunt for a car. People how know me, know that I will always try and include two things in any project; Red Bull and Volvos. This looked like the first project that both would be useful :-)
