Atomiza

Thanks to Tanya at Atomiza, we no longer have any hygiene concerns for the trip. Thanks to the chemical sprayer donated by Atomiza (modelled below)....we have our very own in-car shower.



Tanya also, really kindly provide 6 chamois leathers for drying off, all personalised with the drivers names. How sweet is that. Check out the 'sponsors' section to find out more about Atomiza, or visit their website here.

With 'the off' getting ever nearer, and our car finally working, our minds shifted from a constant stream of repairs to the pressing matter of 'spares'. In stepped Motormania - who were simply excellent in providing us with an array of goodies to keep us running on our quest for eastern glory. A giant box-load of spares landed on my doorstep, including loads of spare bulbs for the lights, wind-up torches, puncture repair kits, a breakdown kit and more. Not only this, but they sent enough for all 3 pandas in the team. Thanks so much to Chris at Motormania who made this possible. Check out their website. They do loads of parts, spares and gadgets. www.motormania.co.uk

Okay. So we're going to be sitting in a hot car 24/7 for 4 weeks. The car will be full of fumes (petrol and ourselves). We'll have the constant humming of our tyres, rattling of the gearbox and be bumping over dodgy terrain all day long. We'll probably not be the healthiest of souls. And so to our rescue comes expresschemist.co.uk with a really kind offer of a pharmaceutical pack. Jenny at expresschemist really kindly put together a pack of paracetemol, bite cream, plasters, antiseptic wipes, diarrohea stuff (heaven forbid) and pro-plus. The perfect survival pack. Thank you so much. www.expresschemist.co.uk

Blue, white and green - and proud

Team Mongolian Job is proud to have its full compliment of 3 cars, all Pandas and in the dashing colours of blue, white and green. Those of you who have seen The Italian Job will remember the dashing combination of 'red, white and blue' but for this adventure across Europe and Asia - our chosen colours are far more significant.

We leave from the port of Dover - which has its own flag - sporting our colour scheme.



On our route, our colour scheme will earn the respect of the Russians - as it matches the colours on the flag of the Russian Frontier Guards.



And any fears of trouble in Uzbekistan en route are not necessary for us either, as Team Mongolian Job proudly sports the colours of its National Flag.
