I'm quite nostalgic of this trip.
Even come back in solo From Oslo to my town in Belgium was a great time!
Ferry's are a good solution to have a faster, safer and easier trip but are quite expensive. When I check the Ferry in Oslo, It was something like 400€ to go to Copenhagen. It was half the way, but cost twice the money I use in gas. Around 600€.

Ferry prices varies alot and my best tip is to book your ferry ticket well in advance. We will do our best to get a discounted rate on the most popular ferries for you guys. The fuel prices is a bit out of our reach....... yet Best rgs BB |

" I'm quite nostalgic of this trip." Me to dude it really was an AWSOME experience As for which route I will take I have NO idea yet but I know I will have dual carbs next year so I should use ALOT less fuel I was thinking of getting the ferry from the UK then drive all the way home |

Me to dude it really was an AWSOME experience As for which route I will take I have NO idea yet but I know I will have dual carbs next year so I should use ALOT less fuel I was thinking of getting the ferry from the UK then drive all the way home Two options from UK; Newcastle - Stavanger. Commercial ferry, restaurants, shops etc etc etc. Quite a huge gang going to SCC from Stavanger so maybe drive together with them? Beatiful trip over the mountain from Stavanger to Oslo - approx 6,5 hours at ordinary speed. Fantastic scenery! Hull - Breivik. This is a ro-ro boat. You leave your car and they bring it over and you pick it up at Breivik. Quite cheap. Brevik is 2 hours from Gardermoen and very close to Brevik is Torp airport and you can get cheap flights to Torp from the UK. My recommendation; take the Newcastle - Stavanger ferry and hook up with Trond Dahl and the rest of the DKL club. Drive with them over the mountain and enjoy the view. |

Or maybe put my 1300 SP again in the car for the trip (And you know how this engine is work. A really high mileage engine ) |

Let eh 1835 on it, make a couple of passes on the track, break the gearbox. then think about how you'll get home No worries, I suppose somebody will have a gearbox in spare if a break something  But the Porsche shroud will go away  It gives me lot's of trouble. And it's not the right look for the car I think I will freshen up the engine this winter and come back to T1 fan shroud. |

For the guys bringing your cars to Norway for the SCC, if you want to make more than a weekend of your trip to Norway, some of us in the Norwegian VW community are planning a tour of Southern Norway in the week (or 2 weeks) prior to the SCC event. The trip will be a scenic ride of a lifetime with lots of spectacular fjords and mountains, visiting all the interesting cities and places in Southern and Western Norway and stops at some of our VW friends all across the country. The cruise will end at SCC and you are welcome to join us anywhere on the route - from the beginning in Oslo, take a shorter route to join us for parts of the trip og join from for instance Stavanger og Bergen if that is where your ferry takes you.
The trip is still in early planning stages. Here's a couple of pictures to wet your appetite - one of the fjords we will be visiting, and a classic drive - the Trollstigen (directly translated: the Troll ladder)
