A local guy overhere is a big name in Western Europe when it comes to organizing classic car events. One of these Events is in February: the Wintertrial. Originally inspired by the Monte Carlo of the 60s and 70s, this time the Wintertrial went up north: to Norway.

These pics were taken only a few days ago:

Cool video!!! I don't think its a -6. Those wheels look like 4 lug ATS wheels to me.

Wow that is a quality video. Amazing the cameras where all over the place just to make sure to have different clips or maybe that camera guy did the best job to catch videos.

Exciting to see different car model and year! Thanks for sharing the video!

Great video....
Was number 5 a Bentley from the 1920's?

Looked like Scandinavians don't use salt, so not too much trouble if the cars get a good undercarriage wash.

The car that had to be the worst handling would most likely have been the XK-150... A horror on ice, unless it had studded snows...



Of course, the REAL winters are in Massachusetts....

Videos like that are HORRIBLE. They make me wanna give up on my 914 and work on my stable on vintage Volvos. The 122 and 140 content is priceless!
