Skoda indeed. Most excellent choice. :thumbsup:
P'raps it's a Skoda Astra?

Petrol or diesel btw?

Dunno.  I'll see if I can catch them in the morning before their BIG OFF and find out  :thumbsup:

Wish them all the luck in the werld from a fellow but former nutty driving adventurist.
I shall be following them with GREAT interest. :thumbsup:

Save me reading all through the web site, just how long are they expecting to be away then?

How many of them are going in that car?

Tell you, the hardest part of the whole adventure will probably be trying to maintain harmonious relations.
Being cramped up with each other over long periods of time brings out the worst in everyone.....as I remember oh so well. whistle:
I actually feared for the life of the other driver, as one of the navvies.. (ex military and a bir'of a physco).. took a distinct disliking to his bossiness after  a couple of days.
Tense times, but still immense fun.
 Probably added to the spice of the trip on reflection. lol:

There's 3 lads downstairs loading up an Astra ... tomorrow they set off on the Mongol Rally   scared2:

It appears Sahf London has not been kind as one of their rear windows has been broken and is currently taped up with polythene sheet.

What could possibly go wrong? 

Quick snap, from me window like ...



Not wishing to question your post but isn't that a Skoda?

Also, none of the lads appear to have Down's Syndrome.
