Last week was a blast for sure! Extremely busy in all departments of BBT and its still wintertime and bad weather! There must be so many cars under restoration, what bring many “new” VW’s on the streets and to shows this summer, something we only can appreciate and looking forward too! Goods out was in full force as usual…

For BBT’s product range it was also a very busy week and the extreme strong purchase tandem Alain and Chris are really coming to a steady and powerful mix of buy and research so also this week a very well filled basket of new products arrived BBT’s shelves.
