You know it was full of XC90's for the UK market don't you VA? It was that incident that caused the 12 month backlog of orders for Volvo and created such high prices for those who had bought speculatively! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Jay, unless your car is being imported from Holland (and it would go as freight on a ferry and not by car carrier in that case) then the only way it could get that wet would be for it to be taken by barge round the UK canal system!!!! And as far as I know LR haven't yet resorted to using barges on the canals to get the cars round the country! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Interesting site... that was some undertaking. Those guys wouldn't be much good as rrsport.co.uk members, doesn't look like they get away with sitting around all day doing nothing

In the salvage business more time = less money! It took them nearly 10 months to clear it all away as it was. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
