Volvo Amazon at the Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique

03.02.2020

From 29.01. to 05.02.2020 the Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique will take place. Only cars that are at least 40 years old are allowed to participate.

The participants start from Athens, Glasgow, Bad Homburg, Milan, Barcelona, Reims and Monte-Carlo for a rallye to Buis-les-Baronnies (Drôme Provençale). The actual rallye starts here on February, 1st. Numerous special stages are on the agenda. The route leads through the Maritime Alps to Monaco, where the finish will be on February, 5th.

Among the prominent starters is Walter Röhrl in a Porsche 911 from the 1970s, who has won the "big" Monte-Carlo Rally four times with four different automobile brands.

Some historic Volvos are also taking part this time. For example, SKANDIX customer Dan Alven from Sweden is facing this challenge with his Volvo Amazon. Despite good preparation, shortly before the start the race would nearly have been ended for him due to defective clutch parts - but SKANDIX was able to help and deliver the appropriate spare parts to Monaco within 24 hours, thus saving Dan's participation.

We keep our fingers crossed for a good placement and wish all participants a lot of fun and success at this unique event!
