Aperoli on tour #2023 – stop #4 & the end
We arrived at The Isle Of Skye. Wow! Getting there isn’t easy — many hours of driving on an assortment of roads, including small two-lane roads in the Highlands. But it’s worth every minute of driving to get there. Skye is wild and romantic and beautiful. It’s steeped in history. It’s isolated yet not old-fashioned.…
Rally #4 – The Classic Car Tour 2023 in Scotland 🏴
We arrived at the Scottish highlands. We had a couple of days to practice driving on the left side… it’s quite simple (lol) if you keep reminding yourself: left, left, left! Or just follow the car in front of you and hope that it’s somebody local. Roundabouts are tricky. There’s so many of them… and…
Aperoli on tour #2023 – stop #3
Weather: beautifully sunny Aperoli: doing so lala 😐 We left beautiful Edinburgh yesterday and Aperoli started making a new noise… a noise which called for stopping & checking… we discovered a loose screw and figured, that the engine stabilizer bolt broke. Arghhhhh. Panicking. We stopped at a garage and they disassembled… the end of the…

Aperoli on tour #2023 – stop #1
Who remembers the Aral advertising? Well, that’s how I felt a couple of days ago… Day 1: What do you do if your car gets slower in the middle of the German motorway? No, you don’t panic! You try to communicate to hubby which isn’t easy due to all the car noises and ear plugs.…
Aperoli on tour again #2023
We are ready. Aperoli is ready (as ready as we all can be… fingers crossed). Last MINIte – our motto is sticking with us. We have big plans. Ready for another adventure. Ready for another big trip. Friends & family, a ferry, and a few countries to cross to make it to the start of…
A Swabian Oldtimer Weekend
Many months ago agreed. A very first sunny weekend. Our Oldtimer friends arrived with their chic Volvo P1800… while our youngtimer decided to be “moody”. Oil leakage & had to stay in the garage. Bummer. Good, that we have a younger version of Aperoli. On tour in Swabia: starting at the former motorcycle race ring…

Aperoli in winter wonderland (again)
The weather forecast: rain & cold. Aperoli & us ready for a last Oldtimer weekend this year. Off we go! On the way to Kassel. The reality: rain turned into snow along the way. Surprisingly a lot of that white stuff came down. The last kilometers turned into a first little adventure: it was already…
