Update: We did it and returned alive!
We are a team of four (Justin Holsgrove, Gavin Campbell, Louis Jenkins and Dan Miles) foolhardy non-mechanical types who have bought a wreck of a car in order to drive a rally across Europe.
The banger rally is themed on the films of the world's favourite secret agent. Taking place over a long weekend in July it will pass through France, Switzerland and Italy onto the fabulous city of Venice, the final location from the film "Casino Royale". On the way we'll be visiting several of the most famous film settings including Blofeld's mountain lair (now a revolving restaurant) from "On Her Majesty's Secret Service", the Dam where Bond performs one of the world's highest bungee jumps in "Goldeneye", and the mountain passes where Goldfinger is chased in the DB5.
We aim to do this purely for the fun and challenge of it. This page has been set up to hopefully give Pancreatic cancer a serious kick in the pills along the way. The 1 Million target was purely bad speculation.We now have a blog: http://thundercrawl.wordpress.com/
