After he heard about the rally, he agreed to support us and enlisted to vehicle parts as well as help and advise us with the constructions!
A huge thanks from the whole Mongol Rally 2019 team!
Here you can find all our sponsors. 🙂
This jewel of German engineering art was born on 12th July 1991. It’s a space saver thanks to its hatchback and weighs only 765 kg tare due to the lightweight design “Fox”. Extras like a clock, trip meter, cigarette lighter, glove compartment door, lockable filler cap and hatrack are not on-board. We will probably exhaust the maximum vehicle load capactiy of 465 kg. But the admissable total weight of 1.230 kg is going to crest 4655 m above sea level on the Pamir Highway with the 45 HP, tearing at the fron axle. We are confident.
Welcome to the team!!!
We always knew the day would come sooner than we thought. And there wouldn’t be any good excuse not to do it…

What’s left to say? We still need a care, a charitable idea, vaccinations, visas and a few thousand Euros… but now we have a goal to work for 😉
We are continuously working on our setup, our website, to find a car and our sponsoring.
Even though we didn’thave time yet for a fotoshoot with Inga, we still updated our pictures.
You can now gaze at our members on the team site.
Concerning the car, we were able to settle on a VW Polo 86C. A Search in the online jungle showed us many results and many repair instructions are available.
Inga Klas has agreed to take our pictures so we can get rid of the placeholders and don’t have to use our biometric passport photos.

It is finished. We ordered our webspace, activated the encryption, installed wordpress, updated everything, started all necessary plugins. And there already have been first clicks. The first version of the website is finally here. We are as proud as a peacock.
This is where you can see the progess of our rally preparations.
Our next steps:
– Negotiate with newspapers
– Find sponsors
– Look for a garage
– Buy a car
We will keep you posted 🙂
