Driving over mountain passes was still a real adventure in the 1960s and a dreaded ordeal for many a vehicle. No wonder the 'hobby' makers came up with the idea of combining the ascent of the Col de la Bonette with a car test. The VW 1500 Variant was put through its paces. This article reproduces the original wording of the test and adventure report of the time and supplements the magazine illustrations with factory photos from the period.
