More prep for The Little General, a quick Before and After of the Headlights. They're not great still, and could really do with being replaced, but significantly better than they were. He's coming on

🚗 WE ARE OFFICIALLY LIVE! 🚗

​The countdown is on, and the JustGiving page for our Skinflint Rally attempt in 'The General' (you know who he is....) is officially up and running!

Next year ​we’re driving thousands of miles across Europe to raise money for two incredible causes:

👩‍🚒 The Firefighters Charity UK

🧸 Children’s Hospice South West (Little Harbour)

​Every single penny raised is being split 50/50 between both charities, and we’re covering all our rally costs, fuel, and gear out of our own pockets—so 100% of your support goes straight to where it's needed most.

​If you can spare a few quid to help us reach our target (or just want to watch two blokes try not to break down in a Panda), hit the link below to donate or share!

Just got home..... is making some horrible bearing/pulley (supercharger, but we don't have one) noises, but made it none the less. So proud of that little car, what a trooper 💪🏻

Imagine this, scenario.....you have to drive to, I dunno, Liverpool.....approx 340 miles from here. And you've been given a 1.2 Fiat Panda to do it in. Not the most comfortable or refined thing in the world is it, you'd probably refuse it. Now imagine doing 3,276 Miles in 8 days!! 🤣🤣

It wasn't even uncomfortable to be honest, was a great trip and I'd do it again tomorrow. Fix the Pulley probably first mind.....and the coolant temp sensor.....

Thanks Matt!!
