Sweden Off Road Tour 1999
Some general info about this great adventure: Sweden Offroad Tour July 3-18 1999 became a success! Lots of cars and people, terrific terrain and weather, one week of heatwave. The tour offered a record breaking of 14 offroad days, 9 of them in a row! Altogether 300 different cars and 600 people from 8 countries took part, nearly a double compared to last year! The participants came from Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany, Holland, England, Switzerland and Belgium. 25 different newspappers, magazines, radio and TV made features, which reached about one million readers/listeners/wievers. Among them Svedish National Television, TV5:s MotorJournal, British Land Rover World and Swedish Wheels Magazine. Also readers reports will be pulished in German and Dutsch offroad magazines.
I participated from Stockholm and all the way up to Kiruna, around 1200 km. My car was a Landrover Defender Tdi, actually brand new, 1999 year model. A sturdy car basically without any normal comfort but incredible capable of traverse very difficult terrain.
