Hi all Volvo 300 series lovers!

My name is Hugo Tagle and I've recently purchased a 360 GLE sedan, B200EO. I currently own a ´71 142 and a '98 C70. I have to admit that I've always underestimated 300 series volvos, maybe due to the lower quality '76 and '77 units which led to a very bad reputation in Chile. But once I drove it the first time I immediatly fell in love with the car, its supple ride, confort, the engine and gearbox, etc.

The first day:

Also used between 1985 and 1990 as escort cars for some military:

Nice one. Glad to see you and your car here. Epic work. Its looking hot and dry there - fabulous.

it looks dry and hot bacuse the pictures were taken 300 kms north of Santiago where the climate is usually dry, and to add, we have been through a 12 year dry season.

Amazing piece, Looks beautiful!
