Arbesko Newsblog

July 31st – August 7th was Classic Car Week in the Swedish town of Rättvik. We packed our camera again and headed to Rättvik to see what visitors at Classic Car week do when they have some excess energy. With the right shoes at work you’ll have energy left over for other things, in this case Arbesko 855.

The film clips, containing everything from tap dancing to back flips with an old Volvo, were published on our Facebook page for people to vote. The winner was Nr 11, Robin whose brave attempts at doing cart wheels got the most votes.

We want to thank all the competitors, and also Statoil who sponsored the event with prizes – generous gift vouchers and engine oil!

We will publish two mini documentaries from Classic Car Week shortly, so stay tuned!

Arbesko were there again this year, when the STCC races took place between 9th and 10th of July. This year was not like other years though, it was something very special – as sponsors of “Mattias Ekström Junior Team” we spent the weekend backstage with the DTM champion Mattias Ekström and his Junior Team, which promotes young, promising race drivers. The team, who all wore Arbesko model 350, were represented by two young talents in this year’s race; Dick Sahlén and Roger Eriksson who both drove a Seat Leon. Obviously with the Arbesko logo on the front!

A big thank you to the Mattias Ekström Junior Team for a great weekend!
