A sunny Ring, a Ford Escort RS1600 BDA from the seventies, and a happy Olaf Manthey behind the wheel is all the ingredients you could possibly want for a magical Ring video.

Shot during one of the most popular vintage racing events in the world, the 2015 Oldtimer Grand Prix, the video shows German racing driver and owner of Manthey Racing driving flat out a very healthy Ford Escort RS1600 on the Green Hell.

Chasing vintage Porsche 911s, 356s and MGs in an Escort on the Ring? This must be the stuff dreams are made of. Watch as Olaf Manthey artfully demonstrates his great driving skills using one of the most beloved European rally cars.
