Anyone else following Vantage World tour?

Does not seem to be getting much coverage which is a real shame - a great adventure and for a very good cause

Ahhh bloody brilliant.

Didn’t this car feature in PH brave pill or spotted a little while ago when it came up for sale?

Following now with great interest

Edit to add yes it did. What a car and what a story, and what a cause

I had a quick look at their website.

Wondered if their progress location position would be shown, but could not see anything.

Did I miss the location? Is there a link or button?

What a challenge and certainly not my first choice of car to use for such a journey, but expect that adds to the fun.

Ive followed on instagram. What a great trip, even though it is like a sequence of shorter tours the logistics alone must have taken some planning. Not seen a location tracker though, just a few social media updates so far. That Vantage seems ideal for the job with the extra fuel cans and spare wheel modifications already done

[Vantage World Tour]

Thanks for showing an interest in our challenge to drive around the world in a V8 Vantage.

It's got some history, including being Dr Ulrich Bez's company car and in 2007 it drove from Tokyo to London. More at https://www.vantageworldtour.com/v8-vantage

As for the tracker. We've fitted one which is capable of being embedded on our website, but we think we're unlikely to do so due to security concerns while we're on the road. We will be posting daily on Insta and Facebook though, with @vantageworldtour

In a week's time my son and I will be flying to New York, and on the following Tuesday we'll be departing from Times Square on our US and Mexico leg. Excitement really building!

All the best,

Phil.
