My mate Jim and some friends are entering the Maidstone to Monaco Banger Rally, hoping to raise funds to help build a pre-school in Uganda.   

The event takes place in September and will take 4 days to drive to Monaco.  You're not allowed to spend more than £350 on your car and it has to be safe and road legal.  If anyone has a suitable Banger that they are thinking of scrapping around September time with a bit of tax and MOT, then get in touch and maybe a deal could be done.  Anything would be considered, but a diesel Omega would be great!!

I'm sure it will be a lot of fun, but the bottom line is that it is all about raising money to help kids in one of the poorest countries in the world!    Many Thanks!!

looks like that could be a laugh

Don't have an appropriate car to offer,however you've got to admire the banger rallyists who set off for far flung places in cheapo vehicles in aid of charity.Got to be a few laughs to be had along the way.

Another friend did the Bamako (Mali) Rally a few years ago in a £500 Golf, which he said was fantastic.  Highlights included camping on deserted beaches in Western Sahara and at the end in Bamako driving on through the desert to Timbuktu! 

He raised quite a lot of cash for Help the Hero's and what's more remarkable is that my friend is a paraplegic and confined to a wheelchair!!!
