SIMPLE's £300 MAX!

Thus keeping the costs down and enabling most people to make it to Berlin. £300 should be enough to get a decent enough pile of rust that will travel 1500 miles before exploding in a ball of flames. There are a few options for types of car and in real terms the crazier the better. We all know if someone rocks up in a pimped out hearse, they will have the upper hand on those in a Ford Escort. Unless it's the Mark 2, straight from Lock Stock and Two Smoking barrells.

TRY TO MAKE SURE IT WILL GET YOU THERE!


Following on from the last trip. There were moments that could have killed us, so this time round there are not going to be any organised races. So you do not need to buy a clapped out Porsche with no brakes that will kill you on the 'Ring'. In theory a 1970 Lada estate will be a better buy as will all know after WWIII the only things left to survive will be Cockroaches, bottles of Sunny D and cheap eastern European Cars.



 

MUST DO's......
Make the car your own with, paint jobs, mod's, tack shiny add ons from Halfords. Any or all of the above are a must!
In fact now I think about it bog standard cars will be eliminated and not allowed onto the ferry at Folkstone unless I receive a hefty bribe.  

 

  You must have the registration document (v5), MOT certificate and receipts in order for you to flog the cars in Germany so this is also a must.
 
 

  As a responsible adult I will say you must have... insurance, road tax and a basic safety kit to drive in Europe. Of course however I am neither a policeman or your mother.
