Story
Dear friends and colleagues!
I’m originally from Ukraine and recently returned to my home city Lviv to help my nation as much as I can and where its possible (giving blood, seeking for supply, transporting goods, evacuating disabled people and families with babies and kids)
I do all of that currently using my London taxi daily (as im fun and owner of few classic cars) this car has access for disabled people but no good for injured people (no room and not fast enouth)
With my local Ukrainian / volunteers community we decided to raise some money for a 4x4 SUV which we can use on the battlefield (to be driven by someone else not myself personally) to evacuate injured civilians. Used cars in the UK are more affordable and we have a green light at Polish/Ukrainian border who can let us in without paying any taxes and duties (humanitarian help)
The car also will be loaded with other available supplies. It will be inspected upon arrival here in the ukraine by our mechanis (volunteers) before sending to the East of Ukraine
We aim for a 4x4 used SUV in working order with MOT, full log book, manual gearbox, diesel and folding seats (as we need flat floor at the back). We consider as an option Land Rover Discovery 2, Mitsubishi Pajero, etc
We have a driver willing to transport the car to the Polish border and I can take care of it from that point. I will pay for the fuel, ferry, road tax, insurance, etc. Any remaining money (if we manage to buy a cheaper car) will be spent on other necessary supplies.
I promise full report and photo evidence in the end of this adventure. I really hope you can help me with this good deed and sure together we can save many lives, and help to fight the evil enemy!
God bless you and many thanks for your great support in this difficult time!

2 years ago+3 cars shipped from Northern Ireland to Poland to Ukraine Unfortunately, the demand for 4x4 cars is still high People seek and buy cars privately among friends, colleagues, Ukrainian communities overseas, etc More and more cars needed everyday as they don’t last too long and get destroyed/damaged quickly due to the intense fights and bombing. I do everything in my power to help the people, charity funds and organisations to help efficiently at my spare time and I’m thankful to my friends and family members for the great support they provide
