Guest blatters Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 Hi Lads & Lassies, We're well balanced Galaxy owners (me as well for 7 more days). A good web site with a blend of serious technical stuff and funny threads :lol: But check this link which is - on the Volvo XC90 Unofficial Owner's web site - a pan-EU / North American nightmare :lol: http://www.vvspy.com/frameset.php?bn=volvospy_xc90 THE BBQ THREAD Best wishes & any thoughts? Blatters PS. Please, please, please don't anyone give 'peegree' our web address :lol: Quote
bigdaddy Posted March 25, 2006 Report Posted March 25, 2006 peegree nutter :) :lol: :D Seen this site from your last post about your new xc90,,,,,,,,,,the bbq one is so funny :lol: :lol: Quote
Guest blatters Posted March 29, 2006 Report Posted March 29, 2006 :( The web site administrator decided to close the thread down :ph34r: So the nutter has moved to another thread and hijacked it :( If you want to follow the latest rants (it gets better and better) then you now need to look at the thread entitled: Have I made a mistake buying my XC90 Move carefully and don't emerge from the bushes otherwise Peegee may spot one of us and come and hassle us on this site!

Masked Marauder Posted March 29, 2006 Report Posted March 29, 2006 The nutter is clearly either a troll or an attention whore. Quote

Masked Marauder Posted March 29, 2006 Report Posted March 29, 2006 If you spot anything you recognise....... :( :ph34r: :( Quote
Davetheref Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 Looks like he closed the new one as well as i cant find it! Quote
Guest memorandum Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 blaters, when you become part of that site, maybe u can restore calm and politeness ;) Quote
Guest blatters Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 blaters, when you become part of that site, maybe u can restore calm and politeness Not when........but if :lol: Collect XC90 tomorrow. Got a tad emotional between me and the Galaxy as I looked back tonight after getting home. Frankly, the car looks great but I'm not sure about the owners' site. Think I might stay here :ph34r: Better crowd. Regards Blatters PS What a farce with those photographs of the burnt out XC90 that really were a Cayenne - are we dumb or what? Even the link address said Cayenne. Quote
bigdaddy Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 blatters you are more than welcome on this forum,,,,,,,we even have a zafira owner(((sorry to swear)),,,on this forum :lol: The pics were good,,,,,someone faked his user name and made the post,,,,,,,,,,, :ph34r: :D :D :lol: :D Quote

Guest blatters Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 Peegee (or someone masquerading as Peegee) has finally announced the posting of his burned out XC90. Now I'm no expert but I'm not sure that JPEG looks genuine :blink: The mature and serious level of debate on the Volvo site is most stimulating and bodes well for the 'joined-up' EU project as we all live happily ever after, not. :blink: Best wishes. Blatters http://www.vvspy.com/frameset.php?bn=volvospy_xc90 Thread: HAVE I MADE A MISTAKE BUYING AN XC90 (Peegee hijacks everything because the site administrator closed the other threads down!)

Oh My God!! Blatters did you see BBC TV Watchdog tonight? There was an article on the Volvo XC90 where 3 Diesels had mysteriously caught fire in three months and all three were poo pooed by Volvo UK as unrelated. Seems like your mate PeeGee may not be so nuts after all!! :D Quote
Guest blatters Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 Fippin hec :D Email has gone straight to my dealer tonight. I'll let you know! I still think Peegee is a nutter - that JPEG ain't the work of a normal guy :D Typical, I part with my hard earned cash and, four days later, the whole nation thinks the XC90 is a furnace on wheels - bang goes my residuals! Now then, I have a tip for the 3:10 at Doncaster, anyone interested? Regards Blatters Quote

Guest blatters Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 Thanks GalaxyKid (I think), I've already spotted that info from a google search which hot-linked me to the Volvo owners club page. Link has been sent to my dealer. Risk management strategy now in action - garden sprinkler system now operating over the Volvo 24/7 :D Blatters Quote
