On a tasty ride with the Volvo Duett
07.07.2023
Jutta and Christian Klinge live in Oldenburg and are classic car fans.
Christian is a self-employed master confectioner, his wife Jutta is an event manager. In the following text, the two tell us what the Cafe Klinge Mobil is all about:
For the company's 125th anniversary, I wanted to give myself a present and was looking for a company vehicle that met my requirements: suitable for everyday use, good spare parts supply, not to be found at every corner...
A delivery vehicle with recognition value, an eye-catcher in road traffic ....
I found what I was looking for in the Volvo Duett. After extensive restoration work, the jewel was ready after about 12 months. That was in 2009. Since then, the vehicle has been used for cake deliveries and events. What was missing was a mobile coffee machine. That's how the idea for the Kaffee Mobil came about. Planned in many hours by my wife and me and realised by a locksmith friend and a carpenter.
At events and during deliveries, our team is praised as very harmonious. We are proud :-)
We have also done some nice trips in Europe with the Volvo Duett and our caravan Mostard Yvonne Benjamin, e.g. the east coast of Ireland - the Wild Atlantic Way, Poland - Fresh Lagoon etc.
