Well thanks to Elkparts the whole world knows about our planned exploits.
John and Julian kindly used their weekly email to publicise our trip in a bid to get the donations flooding in. Eschewing the usual update of new products available, the mail no doubt took a few readers by surprise - not least TeamPipe. It might not have been what their loyal consumers were expecting but some were obviously interested as within 24 hours we received money from as far as France and America.
Elkparts has been around as long as i have been into Saabs and is run by enthusiasts for enthusiasts. The website caters for nearly all parts and models of Saab cars and often has discounted or clearance sections as well as lifestyle accessories and clothing.
You'll often see John at Saab meets up and down the country and the organisation isn't shy at sponsoring deserving events. Check out their site here for more information and to order the latest parts for your Saab - whatever the model.
On behalf of TeamPipe, i'd like to say thanks very much.

The Valhalla Run
In Norse mythology, those who fell gloriously in battle passed on to a magnificent place called Valhalla. In bangerese we call that a scrapyard. If Valhalla has a car park, we're sure to be adding to it before this route is run.
Valhalla Run is StreetSafari's 5th European Banger Rally.
We've gone in every other direction: East through Europe; South to Africa; West to America.
Nowhere to go now but North...
The event starts in Copenhagen on the 18th of August.
We cross into Sweden, and then on to Norway to do the impressive Trollstigen (Troll Ladder), before a night in Kristiansund.
For anyone dipping their toes in the various seas and oceans around the world, this is your chance to see the Arctic Ocean.
From Kristiansund we travel all the way to Umea on the Baltic Sea, cross by ferry to Korsholm and then head towards Helsinki for the final night, 22nd August.
The distance is around 1,700 miles, through terrain unlike most people have ever seen before.
This is more different than any other StreetSafari event to date. You can also bet it's more desolate than the other European countries we visit. Norway has less than 5m people in a country nearly 50% bigger than the UK!
