Iħjut Fiat Panda tagħlaq fir-rekord dinji ta ' Cape Town-Londra

875cc city car driven by two Britons due in London today. A pair of British drivers are within hours of claiming two Guinness World Records in their Fiat Panda TwinAir. Philip Young and Paul Brace are expected to complete a 10,300 miles journey from South Africa to London today (Monday) when they arrive at Marble Arch this evening.
Their journey began on 1st February, meaning a gruelling schedule of more than 1,000 miles a day for the duration of the attempt. If successful, Young and Brace will achieve two new world records; firstly, for Cape Town to London, which currently stands at 14 days, 19 hours and 26 minutes, and the London to Cape Town (any direction), the record for which is 11 days, 14 hours and 11 minutes.
In their journey across Africa, Young and Brace became the first people to drive across a new land border between Sudan and Egypt and also the 1,000 miles along the top of Libya. These routes were specially opened for the pair; foreigners are currently prohibited as the risk of terrorist attacks is deemed too high.
Of the Panda, Young said it has been great to drive. . . the two cylinder engine has run perfectly, it's great at overtaking and weaving through heavy traffic so the average speed can be kept up.
