Haparanda Classic MotorMeet 2016 in Sweden

Haparanda, Sweden. This weekend was held traditional Haparanda Classic MotorMeet. The event has been already many times in Haparanda, but for me this was first time.

Event: Haparanda Classic MotorMeet 2016
Venue: Haparanda river side, Sweden
Date: 15th of July, 2016

The event started on Friday 11AM local time. I came about 11:30AM and there was not so many cars yet. Anyway it didn't take long time when the field was already full of  cars.

One of my favorite in the event was this beautiful 1934 Ford. Color was just perfect for this car.

Ford Mustang, but not the basic Mustang. This is 1967 Shelby GT500 SuperSnake.

Specs.

This 1957 Chevrolet Pickup looks great.

Lowrider.

Kenworth trucks are not so common in Europe, but there is something cool.

 Combination ready for trip.

This was something very special. I have never seen Excalibur before.

Lot of interesting details.

Ford Thunderbird.

Low Cadillac Coupe Deville.

Nice Buick.

Picknic with Chevy.

1958 Chevrolet Impala.

Classy Oldsmobile.

Very cool 1940 Ford.

Customized 1950 Chevrolet Fleetline.

This Buick looks perfect in this kind of color combination.

1937 Buick Special Business Coupe. This same car was also last summer in Tornio Traditional Motor Event.

Even most of the car were old American classics there were also European cars. This is old Volvo Duett. What is special in this Volvo it´s heavily modified and it´s registered to tractor. This means driver can be only 16 years old.

This was also something special and new for me. 1936 Volvo TR701. Never seen this kind of Volvo before.

Something small from Italy. Fiat 600.

VW Beetle Turbo Cabriolet. Look at the plate: TOPLEZ

Haparanda Classic MotorMeet was great event. Also weather was very nice on Friday, so it was nice to be outside and watch beautiful old classics.

The meaneast of the day was this Corvette. It looked like some stealth fighter!

The color was just perfect for it.

Sports cars like Porsche, Ferrari and Lamborchini are quite common in Manila, but McLaren is not yet. In fact this was first McLaren what I have seen in Philippines during last few years. Model is 12C Spider.

Toyota GT86 is popular car model for tuning in Philippines. There was also several cars in this event. I talked with the owner of this car and engine has got the turbo charger. Stock version has 200hp, but with turbo it has now 400hp using ethanol and normal gasoline 360hp. Owner uses the car every day. Color looks also awesome.

Smile!

New Mustang is also common in Manila.

This Lexus RC350 looks also great.

Tuned Mini Countryman S.

Premier Condoms girls.

There was also lots of pick ups in the event. Bigger wheels, higher suspension and better ground clearance.

No problems in the ground clearance.

Doors open and let's start the party!

Do you want Ferrari clock to you table?

One, Two...Smile!

That kind of Manila Auto Salon this time. Something new on this year were the LB Works Bodykits. Other wise the event was quite similar like last year.

Manila Trans Sport Show 2015

Manila, Philippines. This weekend was time for the Trans Sport Show. I have been in the same event also in 2013 and 2014. Here is something from the show.

Event: Trans Sport Show 2015
Venue: World Trade Center, Pasay, Metro-Manila, Philippines
Date:   16 - 17th of May, 2015

One of the first car in the show room was this beautiful Michel TF from Michel Motorsport.

Nicely tuned Audi TT Cabriolet. Orange color is quite common nowadays in the sport cars and tuned cars.

Top Gear Philippines had some car games.

Federal tires had also big game systems in their stand.

Paradigma girls posing.

Aurelio concept cars, which have manufactured in Philippines.

Land Rover by Kahn Design is full of testosterone and it looks awesome.

Nissan GT-Rs and the wings.

GT-R and girl.

Cadillac Escalade Limousine. Rent is around 10,000PHP/200€/hour. Unfortunately it looks quite small inside.

Nice 911.

Something elder. Porsche 550 Spyder with Gulf livery.

Posing, posing.

Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow 1972 and "The Spirit of Ecstasy"

Totachi girl.

Flashbacks from 70's and 80's. If something has changed in the cars during the years are rims and tires. This looks in the same time funny and cool, when the rims are very small and there are very wide tires.

First this bike looks like BMW F800GS. When you look it closer it´s something totally different. This is Motorstar Xplorer Z2501 and the engine is 250cc single. Anyway no need to ask what bike has been the model for this one.

That was the Trans Sport Show on this year. The event is not very big compared to biggest one in Manila, but it´s abit different kind of car show and it´s worth to visit.
