Car 65 - PEKING TO PARIS

Join us on our journey...

On 13 May 2024 Don and Stuart fly to China to start the long road journey back to Paris. 45 days together in a 1964 Morris Cooper S. This event first ran in 1906. We are driving in support of Julia’s House.

Don and Stuart in Car 65 are MiniP2P2024 on Instagram. We’ll post what we see as we go. We’ll work on capturing Fun Facts and Moments! WE just may be the tallest drivers in the smallest car this year. Only one orginal Mini from the 60’s has ever completed the Peking to Paris Rally. A trip of 15000 KM in 45 days.
