Audi A-8 L 2015  of the King of Norway

The King of Norway travels in long limousines, sometimes equipped with 6 doors, during his official visits.

 

In fact, since the late 80's, the monarch has been traveling in this type of vehicle as here with this CADILLAC.

 

At the end of the 90s, he used this CADILLAC Superior Royal of 1997

 

Then on board this VOLVO S8, prepared by the coachbuilder NILSSON at the beginning of the years 2000.

 

He also moved in this more classic 2008 LEXUS LS 600 LH .

 

Before coming back with this MERCEDES Classe E 250 from 2012

 

And this MERCEDES Classe E 250 from 2013.

 

His latest model is this 2015 AUDI A8.

 

It is used for annual celebrations,


or official visits.

 

Volvo S8 Norwegian Royale sold to a private person

When Norwegian Royal Limousines are registered, they have an ordinary registration number on the car registration. When they are used by the Norwegian Royal Family, an A is placed on the plate with an identification number.

If one of them is resold, it gets its official number back and they are monitored by the Norwegian Royal Household to make sure that their use by private individuals is not degrading to the Royal Family, such as the prohibition of shooting pornographic movies on board...

 

In the Royal Norwegian garage you can also discover this  PACKARD 1942.

 

The Norwegian Royal family also owns convertibles like this BUICK Roadmaster from 1939

 

Return of King Haakon, the Crown Princess Märtha and the children of Honnørbryggen on June 7, 1945 in Norway

This was a gift to Crown Prince Olav and Crown Princess Märtha from the manufacturer GENERAL MOTORS during the princely couple's trip to the United States in 1939.

 

It brought King Haakon, Crown Princess Märtha and the Honnørbryggen children to the palace on June 7, 1945 when they returned to Norway from their wartime exile.

 

It was used thereafter during great celebrations,
 like here in 1958 with King Olav V.
 

Or here, during the investiture of King Harald and Queen Sonja on June 23, 1991.

It is still used, as seen at a national celebration on May 17, 2020.

Celebration of the 80 years of the Norwegian King Haakin VII in 1952

We can also talk about the MERCEDES Offener Tourenwagen from 1940. This car belonged at the beginning to the representative of the German Reich in Norway during the Occupation, General Nikolaus Von FALKENHORST, who was dismissed in 1942 because he disagreed with the German policy in Norway.

In May 1945, this MERCEDES was seized by the allies. In June 1945, the car was offered to the King of Norway, Haakon VII. It was given the royal plate "A5" and served until 1963.

Queen Elizabeth II in Oslo in June 1955

It was used during the visit of the English Queen Elizabeth II when she came to OSLO, in June 1955.

A royal guard acquired it, then it was sold to an American collector.

 

Travel of the King of Norway with the Queen on 29/08/2018

The Norwegian Royal Family also drives a 1966 LINCOLN CONTINENTALE Convertible.

 

It was used at the wedding of Crown Prince Harald and Crown Princess Sonja in 1968.

 

Here it was used at the wedding of Crown Prince Haakon of Norway on August 25, 2001.

 

Here during the celebrations of the 50th wedding anniversary of King Harald with Queen Sonja on August 29, 2018.

 

We can see that during his travels, the pennant bearing the Royal Norwegian coat of arms floats at the front of the Car.

 

This small pennant is protected when the vehicle is stationary.

 

The two MERCEDES Limousine 6 doors E250 of 2012 and 2013 were prepared by the coachbuilder BINZ .

 

Here is this model in the catalog of this Body Shop in 2014,  still based on Mercedes E250.
