otti´s wörthersee 2012 thread
 

hi guys

i am starting my thread right here and now for you.

tomorrow morning i will start to make it from Bergen in Norway through 3 countrys and a couple of stops along the way in my attempt to make it to the wörthersee in austria.

there will ba loads of pics wich i will comment and post in bundles of 10pics per post, i just hate it when the side takes forever to load. there will be a lot of car pics a little later in the thread when i make it down there.

it depends a lot if i can make it to register the mk1 you know in my 2 days in berlin where i am going to stop to register it again and pick up my MOM. no laughing matter here, i promised my mom to invite here this year to a vacation, so she has to stick with me and see some cars, if i break down in the mk1 she will be my tow vehicle in the mk IV.


there is a lot of driving involved here and thats no laughing matter since my mkIV does not have a curuise control...

anyway, i dont really know where i will have internet connection to upload the pics so there could be some breaks until i reach wifi again. i hope you like my efford :hug:

i will start tomorrow with the ferry from bergen/norway to hirtshals/danmark (i got a good discount and this makes it cheaper than to drive)
i am here atm


the mk IV is packed and checked, i didnt refuel because fuel is cheaper in danmark







wish me luck for my journey, i can use it after the bad luck streak i had in the past months :driving:

i will update as soon as i have the opportunity with fresh pics

if you like use google maps to see how far i have reached and where i am! :noob:

updates!

the epic journey has begun!!
started off friday mornig with the ferry from bergen/norway to hirtshals/denmark




















i reached hitrshals at 7:15 in the morning on saturday filled up the car and started driving



if someone can do the job and follows my fuel consumption and money payed for fuel with the help of a currency converter that would be awsome!

on the bottom right you see how much is left of the trip that day

speedlimit in denmark is 120-130km/h which i kept the whole way and made good progress

but then
the border to germany


which meant
RAISE THE CRUISING SPEED


went through a tank of fuel in 550km
so i needed to fill up again


my goal was to reach a average speed of 115km/h inclouding stops and a fuel average of about 9l/100km


on these (unlimited) roads i found myself doing 180km/h sometimes and i still got parked by all the big diesels usually passats and e-class mercs which usually do 220km/h all day every day..




i reached my feoncees place ahead of schedule





of cours i brought her flowers!
she was happy



no pics of what happened later ;)

:tounge: LOL

next day

since my feoncee needed to go on a 24hour shift at work i decided to go over the border to get some stuff, booze and cigarettes for cheap
this is the river "oder" wich is also the border to poland


poland


i drove off to berlin






where i found my mom alraedy buisy baking and cooking for the cakes and her speciallity soup wich we are going o take with us to our friends in bavarya tomorrow.



later today i am gonna drive back to spend a little more time with my feoncee and tomorrow we are haeding south to BAYERN!!

You Rock Otti....i love these stories !!
