    Okay, so there is a sticker, but what about t-shirts, hats, sweatshirts, jackets, etc.?  Its easy to set up an online store and I am much more likely to buy a shirt or a hat than a sticker to put on the car.  I know the sticker is cheaper, but I like keeping the car sticker/decal-free.

    I wonder if we shouldn't run a poll to see if anyone else would be interested.  I have no t-shirt contacts and no silkscreening skills that I could donate, but I'd get in line to buy some stuff.

    Hi,
    This is great Two new posts from UK members found today.....

    If you are keen on rallys etc, have you thought of joining the Volvo Owners Club? UK Volvo club

    It has sections for all Volvo models, most active are the older models - but is determined by demand. The next meetings in your area are on 13th. January and 3rd February at West Wellow (wherever that is).

    The sub is only GBP 22.50 and you'll get that back with discounts from your dealer.

    Give it a whirl!
    Mike.

    Mine: XC 70 Sport 2009 D5 Inscription Electric Blue.
    VNS, DSTC and 4C, BLIS, LDW ventilated leather ACC; Yummy.

    All gone now - XC70 MY 13 SE LUX Flamenco red - goes better than the '09 even with its "Polestar plus" upgrade. I justy miss the PCC...


    Hers: V60 Flamenco Red 215HP D5 (like above XC70 spec)

    C'mon, no response from the founders?  Art, since you've got those kickin' window stickers, what about some hats and shirts?  No pressure, of course.  And, I'll help out if I can.  But, I have no experience with this stuff and I do live thousands of miles from you, so all I can say is that I promise I will buy some stuff.

    Personalized gifts and accessories are soooo cheap in Korea that I would be willing to volunteer my time and services if Coastal is interested.
    Options: hats, t-shirts, coins, travel mugs, pens, calendars, clocks, golf umbrellas, etc..etc.

    Sounds very enticing but I'd first like to be absolutely certain there are no legal ramifications in using the Volvo XC name, or establish an agreement with the trademark holder before proceeding.

    We're good at this point since this is more of an enthusiast community or club and the decals are only being used to promote the club, not for profit. I were to start selling volvoXC.com branded products I'm pretty sure Volvo Cars and VCNA would have something to say.

    Coastal, Just let me know if you'd like any help restocking the shelves with more decals or whatever.  

    Warm regards,
