Austrian drives his oldtimer tractor for three days to reach his Croatian holiday destination

An Austrian policeman has been travelling for three days to Croatia on his tractor.
Gerhard Bengesser from Vogan in Leibnitz area wore a traditional costume when taking local roads to reach the tourist destination of Porec, western Croatia in a trip longer than 300 kilometres aboard his oldtimer tractor Steyr 180 from 1951.
"It has been my long-term dream to drive my tractor from my home to Porec where I often spend my holidays. Before, when I was arriving in Porec with my car, it would take me three hours. This time in three days I've experienced much more joy during the trip. I've met a lot of nice people. That's the advantage of a holiday trip on tractor", Gerhard Bengesser has said to Croatian daily Glas Istre.
