Neatorama reader Andres Varela wrote to us about students driving tiny old Renault 4L from France to Africa in the 4L Trophy tour [in French]:
On February 15th two thousand students left France in tiny Reanult 4's, heading for Morocco. 2007 is the 10th anniversary of the 4L Trophy tour and as well as all the fun that entails, they're also there to help distribute items such as teaching materials to under-privileged Morrocans.
By February 17th they'd reached the south coast of Spain, within site of Gibraltar and ready to get the ferry from Algeciras to North Africa.
