Re: 2014 - International Volvo Meeting (BE)

Well yes! Believe me or not, but I just taxed a working GLT since this year (oldtimer registration), it'll be the "pleasure" car, so you'll probably see this car. Speaking about pleasure, first day of driving the GLT, first brakedown after 100km :mrgreen: , the car wouldn't start again, I felt a bit...
