Crapheap Challenge 2008

Recommended Posts

Hi people! Most of you will know Shrewsbury and I took part in a charity rally from Dover to Italy and back in August with my Volvo 740, along with four other cars that cost no more than £500 each. Well I've managed to piece together the first episode and it is available on the YouTube channel we setup for the trip, you can also watch it in better quality on the Facebook events page we setup! Both these locations are where all the following episodes will be uploaded to!

YouTube Channel - youtube.com/crapheaptv

Facebook Events Page

Hope you guys enjoy the episodes (webisodes?) as I complete them! If you have any feedback don't hesitate to throw it my way, good or bad!

Cheers!

Jonny.

Thanks guys! Episode 4 is in the 'offline' stage - ie its had a rough cut - just needs refining a bit.

We're planning to do it next year yes! I wouldn't suggest doing it if you've JUST past your driving test - foreign roads can be dodgy and a bit of experience is always a good thing, especially if you've not done many motorway miles or done pass plus. Never say never though :D

That was quality, dare I ask how much you spent on the whole trip?

£70 on tapes, £1500 ish on my car cos it was literally a crapheap and wasn't amazingly road-worthy... but all in all maybe £2k something like that? That was just me though, im ashamed I spent so much on that Volvo! :S I took £500 worth of Euros with me, €300 of which went on fuel. All in all a lot of money, but I did work my arse off for it all and the experience I got out of it all was more than worth it! :D

Ep4 was quality, the exhaustless Capri sounded quality!

Haha thanks man! Yeah sounded quite dramatic! They were up the same evening until gone dark trying to put it back on the car! Managed it in the end!

For those interested, and as... Bender lol has mentioned, Episode 4 is online (in two parts) - www.youtube.com/crapheaptv - and in high quality on the Facebook Events Page!
