Rust to Rome

I’ve mentioned before about this little adventure called Rust 2 Rome which involves driving from Edinburgh to Rome in a car costing no more than £250. More information below…

Rust 2 Rome 2008

So, Kirsty and I have decided to enter next years event which is likely to happen in the first week of June. I also believe Kirsty’s friend Derek is also keen.

So, if your interested leave me a comment or send me an email. If we get over 5 people, the plan is to have a boys and girls car!

The Car

I think we would need a car capable of doing 5,000 miles and anything else is a bonus! Here are a couple of vehicles I’ve looked at so far. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

£75 – 1.2L 1998 Renault Clio, 100,000 miles

A bit small I think

£185 – 1.4L Mercedes A Class

Must be something wrong with it for this price?

£250 – 1.6L Turbo Ford Escort

This boy race car has bounded to of been thrashed!

£250 – 2L Volvo 740 – 243,000 Miles

Can double up as living accommodation!
