[Healeys] Trip to Denmark and Norway

Thanks Magnus. I've driven the Stelvio so it makes it all the more
interesting to think of this route!

You can run your regular bulbs without any problems as long as your dynamo
and control box is ok. All of us Healey owners in Sweden do. Running with
side lights only won't be permitted by the law.

Make sure not to miss the passes "Ornvagen" in Geiranger and "Trollstigen" a
little further north. The views are breathtaking, world class! The roads
will make you feel as you were doing the Stelvio pass on the Alpine Rally.

Have a good trip!
