#Volvo600

Guiness Book Record Attempt Bruntingthorpe Aerodrome - Sunday 3rd April 2019

  • Guiness Book Record Attempt Bruntingthorpe Aerodrome - Sunday 3rd April 2019
  • Closing off a private road to make traffic flow into the aerodrome easier.
  • Heading to another assignment on the aerodrome.
  • Phil Jacob’s Hampshire Constabulary Volvo 240PS running the 1 mile line of Volvo’s at #Volvo600.
  • We filmed the nearly 1 mile long, 6 a breast line and it took us 4:30 mins. The total number of cars was 1575 but awaits ratification by the Guiness Book people.
  • Then a reverse run down the runway to get back to the front of the queue. The event used anyone with a police car to help with escorting the other cars into the airfield.
  • Line up of some of the Police Volvos who had helped at the event at the tail end waiting for the official attempt to start including Phil’s Hampshire 240PS.
  • End of the day and the Police Volvo’s are at the head of the queue now ready to lead all the participants off the airfield towards the exit. Took nearly an hour and a half to clear them out. Great day out!
