I wonder if mine was a special edition of some sort. That might explain the SE badge on the back. Its a 360 GLE saloon with everything including factory a/c and electric sunroof, leather etc etc, but no spoiler, modded centre console, heated seats or power steering. It is a 1986 model. Was that a special year fot Volvo?

It'll be a GLE SE (Special Equipment...there was also a GLE SE Special Edition, but that didn't have AC). Damn you

cheers

This is a special edition too, im not sure, but around 350 were made for the dutch market. There's one owned by people in a retirement home, 300 metres from my house.
