It is with great sadness we heard the news today that Volvo will close the factory in Uddevalla in 2013. We are very pleased that we were given the opportunity to convene the meeting with the formation of our club at the plant and with the support you gave us. We think of all the talented car builders and hope of course that all staff should be able to find a good transition to other jobs at Volvo or elsewhere. The Swedish Volvo C70 club send our best wishes to all staff and with our activities we will contribute to preserving the memory of the good work that is accomplished in the Uddevalla plant.

 

The Uddevalla plant; the worlds most beautifully located car factory!
