The club is based in Germany.
Most of the members live in Germany, but over 180 of our members live in France, Austria, Switzerland, Scandinavia and the Benelux countries. Overseas we have members in USA, South America, Japan and Australia. People who drive a vehicle manufactured by Glas, from the early scooters, the Goggomobil or the later full-size sedans and sporty GT cars can become a member. But even those who are just interested in this automobile manufacturer from Dingolfing in lower Bavaria, even without owning a Glas vehicle, are welcome.
