Two in as many days. :lol:

Clearing out the phone, and I just remembered this one from Makro in Wahsington. Probably a couple of months back.

It looks like the one from Gosforth way on that is owned by a (scared) Chinese guy. :lol:

Anyone on here?

Certainly not UK based... we never got saloon GLS's as far as I know. They were all GLE's or GLEi's in Mk2 guise. Looks like banded original 13's, smart looking car

Just been on RR and noticed the guys thread is back at the top. The Volvo is on this page http://retrorides.proboards.com/index.c ... 225&page=2 Dunno if there's any more info than the two pics though as I have just been flicking through his images mostly.
