SEBSPEED Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 My uncle has a tricked out Opel Manta of the same vintage as the red one in your pic above. I got to drive it once in Germany, that is a fun little car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Mohawk Posted August 11, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted August 11, 2014 Well its nice to see that the video, does NOT do those hairpin bends any favors, does not look tight at all, but I think we might have traveled a couple of those same roads when I was there last month. They are much tighter than the video shows & the views & scenery are much better to the human eye than the video records. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are much tighter than the video shows & the views & scenery are much better to the human eye than the video records. Indeed. It is frustrating to try to capture the scenery, because in person, it is overwhelmingly beautiful, but the video is always so-so. And I swear some of the hairpins are well over 180 degrees! I will have to keep trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
