Beaminster to Monte Carlo Or Bust!

We are delighted to let you know that a team from Beaminster, will be driving over 1000 miles from Beaminster to Monte Carlo in a £250 banger car to raise money for charity!

Team “Livin the dream” have secured a place in the 2013 Monte Carlo or Bust Banger Rally and will be burning rubber this July to Monte Carlo via France, Switzerland and Italy.

The rally challenges entrants to source a banger car for less than £250 and take part in a variety of Top Gear-style challenges along the way and compete for points and prizes.  The rally is made up of over 80 teams from throughout the UK who will be sharing their progress with supporters back home via live GPS tracking.

Inspired by the classic Paramount film, the 3-day crusade will see some of the finest British bangers visit Europe’s most exciting locations and experience spectacular roads with backdrops of sun, sea, sand and snow!   There are a series of prizes up for grabs including trophies for the best – and worst – dressed teams.

Rally spokesperson, Cuthbert Ware-Armitage, comments:  “I am delighted to have a team from Beaminster, will be joining me on Europe’s ultimate banger rally adventure.   This is a brilliant opportunity to get your team into gear and experience some of the greatest roads in Europe in some of worst cars from the UK!”

Monte Carlo or Bust takes place between 12-14 of July and more information can be found on the event website at www.montecarloorbust.eu
