The End of Saggy Rear End


The good 2nd hand rear springs I had sourced turned up today so no fear of that well known SAAB 900 rubbing and a saggy rear end when carrying 4 passengers and their hand luggage.
No idea when I'll actually fit them to the car as I'm in the middle of gutting and re doing our bathroom so I'm not allowed to play with cars until it's finished.

The Valhalla Run

In Norse mythology, those who fell gloriously in battle passed on to a magnificent place called Valhalla. In bangerese we call that a scrapyard. If Valhalla has a car park, we're sure to be adding to it before this route is run.
Valhalla Run is StreetSafari's 5th European Banger Rally.
We've gone in every other direction: East through Europe; South to Africa; West to America.

Nowhere to go now but North...



The event starts in Copenhagen on the 18th of August.

We cross into Sweden, and then on to Norway to do the impressive Trollstigen (Troll Ladder), before a night in Kristiansund.
For anyone dipping their toes in the various seas and oceans around the world, this is your chance to see the Arctic Ocean.

From Kristiansund we travel all the way to Umea on the Baltic Sea, cross by ferry to Korsholm and then head towards Helsinki for the final night, 22nd August.
The distance is around 1,700 miles, through terrain unlike most people have ever seen before.

This is more different than any other StreetSafari event to date. You can also bet it's more desolate than the other European countries we visit. Norway has less than 5m people in a country nearly 50% bigger than the UK!
