Another 5000 Hotchkiss miles. (UPDATE: today!)

Thomas Rudolph is among the multi mile league. People go for the extra mile with their vintage car. His typical summer mileage hovers around 5000. Not spent on ten 500 mile tours around his Strassbourg homestead. But preferably to remote areas, where people have never seen a decent Hotchkiss before and where vintage parts availability is extremely thin. At the moment he is in Finland, more precise the northern areas of Lapland  where snowscooters and elms are the typical means of transport. You can follow his travels through his travelblog at  Hotchkiss.eu

UPDATE by Thomas who sent his report this morning:
 I enjoy Finland. In Lappland it is a great pleasure to pitch the tent between very elegant reindeer shitt-balls, but I have to confess that I see them like a gift from my relatives. My familyname is Rudolf. I baptised my Hotchkiss AM2 with the name "puffin-Express" when I was in ..............

It has given me immense pleasure to see my Hotchkiss being driven and used as she should be.

I was the man who put her back on the road with her new rear bodywork and competed with her in the VSCC. She is certainly one of the Vintage cars that I most regret having sold.

I hope that you have many more years enjoying her company on the highways of Europe.
