Well, originally it´s Åbenrå. I don´t know the how we handle things like these, but if we write Citroën, Żuk and Léon-Bollée - shouldn´t we write Åbenrå as well? |

Sure, as "Å" works fine on the site. The site uses iso-8859-1, which works for most of the symbols of West-European languages. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iso-8859-1 for a list of these. For others like Skoda/Zuk I have to add something special case-by-case. -- Last edit: 2008-02-22 23:29:12 |

I´m not absolutely sure, but I don´t think Aabenraa Karrosseri A/S ever used spelling with Å/å. Double-a is an old danish spelling for å, not officially used anymore. But in the case of the community Åbenrå/Aabenraa I think both spellings are still accurate. About the coachbuilder it was an independent coachbuilder till 1994 when it became a part of Volvo and production was closed down in october 2004. Here´s a link to a danish site about the closing of the factory: http://myldretid.dk/artikler/nr/29 The model here is from about 2000, model origin is Sweden and Säffle Karosserifabrik but produced in Denmark mainly for danish market. |
