Imagine a TopGear Africa Challenge, But Real...

...and to be fair to TopGear, by real we mostly mean without a giant support crew and budget.

We've featured the Amsterdam-Dakar Challenge before, in case you missed it think crazy Dutch people on a Paris Dakar from the very early days mixed with ChumpCar.  500 Euro for the car and off you go 7000 km though Africa, what could possibly go wrong?

Integral to the event is charity and the Amsterdam-Dakar Challenge has raised a rather amazing 3.5 million Euros since 2004.  Well done!
