Trip to gothenburg
Me and Oblark have just got back from gothenburg.
Everyone at Volvo has been fantastic!! We did factory tour, and managed to get access to crash test facility with all the Volvo film makers, not something open to public and we were very lucky. Watching live crashes and got chauffeured around all day.
We had luck at Volvo museum as they weren't busy we had our own tech / guide who gave us access to most exhibits, inside and sometimes underneath.
Both facilities are a credit to Volvo, our hotel was centrally located in the heart of g-burg and we found a fantastic English pub.
If anybody would like some info please ask, cost wise was £160 flights, hotel and transfers.
I would urge people to go as its fantastic

Rob has some pics and i always have issues uploading as i need photo bucket, so i'll get someone to show it one day. Volvotuners is super hassle uploading pics, so i just never do now, but rob has lots of pics, he will upload.
Shame i didn't know about this site earlier as you all could have come to gburg.
