Driving the Hartge H50
Wednesday, March 28, 2007
Hartge H50. 550hp V10 in a BMW 3-series chassis... Sequential gearbox, a lot of carbon fibre details and 20" wheels. My job? I helped the Swedish car magazine Teknikens Värld out to drive the car in a timely manner. Do you like it? I did, lots of power and soo easy to keep sideways. Only downside is the price, EUR180.000 or USD229.000. Photo creds to Peo Kjellström, Teknikens Värld
In February I had a fullpage in the Direktpress paper, which goes out to every household in the whole Gothenburg area (incl connected suburbs). Great promotion for my sponsors, me and Porsche! /Carl
