Hello!
Thank you all for your welcome, especially the "boy" de dee. :D
What a beautiful age! We hope you may continue up to 90/95 and we will see. :D :D
Strange! Here in Portugal and I believe that across Europe the 300 comes with standard ABS.
I bought my July and cost â‚¬ 4,899.00. (â‚¬ 5.200.00 with transaction costs)
Insurance + = â‚¬ 70.00 / year
Thank you all. Hugs
