Hello Brian, well done for taking the brave step in to this community, you are amongst good people here.
Who will be first to show a photograph of their Scalextric Volvo Estate with a dog alongside ?

I expect that Santa will deliver some of these Volvos so I am hoping this topic will inspire those who are on the "Nice" list.

Sounds like they're not going to stay looking new for long

I pre-ordered mine the day they were announced last January, it has already competed in our 'production' saloon class, it didn't do too well but it was straight out of the box

Cheers Bernie,
Does it still have the door mirrors or have they been broken off? They seem reasonably good survivors.

We had a Saturday Scalextric Club meeting yesterday, one club member drove an out of the box Volvo and it was a lovely smooth runner, I was most impressed.
Yes it still has it's magnet but the track braid isn't anywhere near as magnetic as plastic track.

Here's mine...
Built with an Amato 3d Chassis, Slot It running gear and Staff Wheels
Runs quite well alongside a PCR chassis'd Scalextric Sierra. Hoping for more 90's BTCC from Scalextric in 2026
