Trabant enthusiasts set out on journey to Cape Town

A group of enthusiasts set out on Sunday on a 20,000 km long journey from Prague to Cape Town. They are driving two Trabants, lightweight vehicles that were produced in former East Germany. Leader of the expedition Dan Přibáň said they want to prove that it’s possible to cover the journey in cars with no special equipment. They are expected to arrive in South Africa in two months. The Trans-Trabant expedition will retrace the journey two Czechs made from Prague to Cape Town in 1931.
