I challenge our really southern mates to take Wedge photos really far from each other, while I'm taking photos at the north. Let's see how far we can get the photos from each other.

This one is from top of Levi at Finnish Lapland yesterday and in an hour I'm heading... north!

Nah, I have good lights on my wedge ;-). Honestly, I bought new Hella lights when I bought the car, they actually are quite good.

I'm currently having a coffee break at Enontekiö. My navigator is currently set for route to Alta, but the day is young and it's only ~150 miles away (the distanses are cosmic out here) so I might be opting for Hammerfest today. :-)

You're right about the scenery - it's not my first time at Lapland, the sceneries here are always breathtakingly beautiful <3

Hah, that would be a good idea biggrin

Nope, not in Finland nor in Norway - which is natural, since they're actually high beams, not DRL's.

I present you Hammerfest, Norway:

^^Of course NZ counts, it's very south. And yes, your Wedge has come a long journey with you - I assume that it hasn't been just long but also great. And certainly I also hope that it continues as such.

While I present you the parking place of Nordkapp, Norway - the most northern place of mainland Europe - we're getting something like 13500 miles apart. That's a long way around.



I drove something like 2100-2200 miles on the trip to Nordkapp and back. The Wedge is surprisingly comfortable for long, straight road but she's really at home at the Norwegian mountain roads. We both - me and my Wedge - enjoyed the V8 roaring on the uphills and all the popping and banging on the downhills. I encountered a British gentleman bicycler who was interested on the car and wanted to take a photo for proof to show at home and someone who couldn't believe the Wedge is trustworthy enough for such a road trip.

For the views of the Northern Norway, here's one example:
