Rhenus Logistics has moved two historic Audi 80 Quattro rally cars from the UK to Hong Kong for the Hong Kong – Beijing Rally 2015.

The cars were moved from Bebington (UK), to Heathrow Airport before travelling to Hong Kong via Luxembourg in a journey that took 10 days. They were then delivered to the owner of classic car and rallying company, S&P 4X4, Victor Ma. The vehicles were chosen because the same model won the inaugural Hong Kong – Beijing Rally in 1985.

Rhenus Logistics Hong Kong general manager, Jane Schebera says: “Thanks to the strong relationship between our UK and Hong Kong offices, the cars arrived safely and on time at the S&P 4X4 workshop in time for the start of the rally.”

Rhenus Logistics UK overseas manager, Adam Nowell says: “In order to respond to the varying demands of a diverse customer base, we have to be flexible in our approach and this means we are able to take on more complex projects, such as transporting these rally cars to Hong Kong.”
