A minimum of 6 Fiat Panda's from all over the UK will leave the UK on the 30th of Aug 2007 to meet up with the Orient-Express in Paris and from that location will race the Orient-Express to Istanbul. Total expected milage for this trip is 6000 miles and will go through France, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria & Turkey. All entrants details will be posted shortly.

All cars involved in the trip are enthusiasts & members of the following car websites www.bmw7resource.com, www.fiatforum.com, www.niimc.net.

The aim as you see is to raise as much as possible for the Great North Air Ambulance Service which is in dire need of funding to stay in the air, so please give all that you can.

One of the Fiat Panda's is rather unusual and has stared in the TV program EastEnders as well as being a main feature in a 2004 McDonalds Christmas TV advert. This panda can be won after it has completed the trip by raffle of which tickets are available, to purchase tickets please contact alan.duthie@tiscali.co.uk
