Lotus and Speedster Meeting in Sweden, May 3 2008

[Stefan_A]

Hi, we plan to have a meeting with Lotus and Speedster owners in the southern part of Sweden.


#1749 outside the airforce museum

Date is May 3rd, and we'll gather in the small town of Ängelholm. It's approx 3 hours drive from Rödby/Puttgarden ferry from Germany (see map below). So if anyone from Holland happens to be in Sweden at the time, you are most welcome to join!

We'll be driving a 100 km tour on small winding roads. Along the way, we'll stop for lunch outside Båstad. We will also visit the local airforce museum, where we'll get a guided tour. This is the same place where they build the Koenigsegg super car, unfortunately they don't allow visitors in the factory.

Last year we were 15 cars, and we hope to beat that this year! Sign up via our Swedish forum (part of the UK site); http://www.vx220.org.uk/forums/index.ph ... opic=59183

We did some final adjustments to the Road Book during Easter. Not in the Speedster though, it was still snow on some of the roads(!). Here comes some teasers for those of you that believe that southern part of Sweden just consists of E4 and E6 highways on the way towards Gothenburg or Stockholm.

Would be really nice to meet with some of you. Let us know if you want suggestions on routes through Sweden or such.
