National Mercedes-meeting In Norway This Summer!

[Surf Blau]

In the weekend of 28-30th of May 2004, the place to be for all Mercedes-enthusiast is in Gol, Norway! This weekend the Norwegian Mercedesclub MB Entusiastklubb (http://www.mbentusiastklubb.com) will arrange their annual Mercedes-meeting here!

Combine your favourite hobby with a nice holiday in Norway! Gol is located in the central part of South Norway (see map), and most routes here offers a chance to see the most of Norways characteristic nature.

The price of the actual Mercedes-meeting is not yet released, but will most likely be in the range of 50€. Earlier years this has included a joint dinner on Saturday evening. Below you will find some pictures from the Mercedes-meeting arranged by MB Entusiastklubb in 2002 and 2003.

I'm so jealous - would love to go to something like that!


Hmmmm . . . If only they would let Steve launch his car off from the top of this (it would most certainly be his car's "last legs") . . .

Friday evening has been set aside to social activities. Relax after a long journey and get to know other enthusiasts! Norwegians are known to be a bit reserved, but this is usually all forgotten in events like this! :D

Saturday is fully booked with the three-pointed star, with the show and dinner later on as the definite highlights! During the show judges and publics will nominate cars for various awards (categories yet not released), and the awards will be handed out during dinner in the evening.

Sunday has activities for members of the club only, with the annual clubmeeting and election of new board.


Hope to see as many of you as possible there! ;)

hahah - NO!!!

It was already a surprise to see people on ski's jumping off in the middle of summer :blink: ...don't think my car would like that at all...

@krk...if it was up to me - the car would be lowered a bit more in the front...the biggest downside is that I won't be able to drive around through speedbump-ed Netherlands after that though...

Will try to get another troffe this year...need to show off my new gadgets and higher mileage.

greetingz,

Just heard that there will be prices in many different classes - and apparently the W124-class is tough!! ;)

Time moves fast and it is now only 2 months until it goes down!! We've already booked nice weather for the weekend in question, and apparently there will be quite a turn-out! I'm really looking forward to this now!! B)
