Denmark = Sports car country

Just back back from a awesome 10 day trip to Denmark. This is sports car country. Went to a family wedding in Zealand (the island home to Copenhagen) then traveled to Funen and then the largest part of Denmark, Jutland.

Partial list:

German

Mercedes:

300SL (W198 II) silver and beautiful, with top down and at speed on a country road
W129 in convoy with an W107, an MGB and a Morgan in Skagan
W107
W113 parked
W111 convertible in everyday use being driven in Aarhus.
R171 being driven in Slagelse

Porsche:

911 Targa (early - mid seventies) Pre-911SC anyway.
996 in the streets of Copenhagen.

BMW:

Didn't spot any sports cars but I did see a
E38 seven series with a manual transmission in one of the hotel's car park.

British:

MG:

MGB at speed
MG Midget at speed (so to speak)
MGTF on a country road (wow)

Morgan

One red and one black. The classic style. Plus 4 or 8?

USA

Corvette C3 Stingray seven of them in line for the Aarhus to Zealand ferry.

Packard (o.k. not a sports car but wow) 20 odd Packard's we bumped into by accident (not literally) at the Viking museum at Korsor. Just by chance we went to the museum the same day as the Nordic Packard club. Unbelievable.

Plus we went to an incredible airplane museum in a rural part of western Jutland. But that's for another post.
