Racing Monte Carlo


My old Renault 4 in front of the Casino Monte Carlo. Notice the Danish number plates....

Some Japanese people with a bunch of cameras, asked me when I stepped out of the Renault, wearing a sharp suit and 70th shades: Where are you from sir, - may we take picture?...

The answer was of cause: The car belongs to the diplomacy - I´m here for enjoyment...
- please no pictures, Thank you.....

If I hadn´t been alone, I would have started to laugh... Not only cause of the crap I was saying, but the Japanese started immediately to flash pictures.. but Ok! what could you have expected.
But they are sweet people and said - Than´ Hu´sir, Than´ Hu´(thank you) I believe....

BTW: to the story goes that I didn´t go to the Casino, cause I was kind of broke at that time.
Why I went to Monaco was only because the road N7 that goes up there from Nice, is a fantastic route to drive, and I loved to do that (I was residents close to Nice for a periode).

Absolutely fantastic scenery.

If you have a vintage sports car or a cheap Renault, it´s a must go - good fun.

Just remember to dress properly and clean your car before arriving - then everything is cool in Monte Carlo...
