The Plymouth-Banjul Challenge or unofficially the Ultimate Banger Challenge and previously known as the Plymouth-Dakar Challenge, is an annual car event for charity. It is not a race or a competition as its website states. It was first run in 2003 to Dakar and since 2005 to Banjul. It very roughly follows the route of the more famous Dakar Rally, visiting many of the same countries. Participants in the challenge are on their own, meaning that no assistance is rendered to motorists in case of a car breakdown or even if they become stranded.

  • Die Banjul Challenge ist eine jährlich stattfindende Veranstaltung für wohltätige Zwecke, die durch Europa und Afrika führt. Sie wurde zum ersten Mal im Dezember 2002 als Plymouth-Dakar Challenge gestartet, 2005 in Plymouth-Banjul Challenge umbenannt und ist heutzutage unter ihrem aktuellen Namen Banjul Challenge bekannt.

  • Plymouth-Dakar Challenge eller Plymouth-Dakar-rally kördes första gången 2003 och heter egentligen sedan 2005 Plymouth-Banjul Challenge. Rallyt är en tävling för välgörande ändamål. Sträckan är ungefär samma som det mer kända Dakarrallyt. Deltagarna måste köra en bil värd cirka £100. Utmaningen är att få bilen från en plats i Europa (till exempel Plymouth) och inte till Dakar (eftersom man upptäckte att det inte gick några flyg därifrån) utan längre ner på Afrikas västkust till Banjul i Gambia där bilarna säljs eller doneras till förmån för välgörande ändamål.

  • The Plymouth-Banjul Challenge or unofficially the Ultimate Banger Challenge and previously known as the Plymouth-Dakar Challenge, is an annual car event for charity. It is not a race or a competition as its website states. It was first run in 2003 to Dakar and since 2005 to Banjul. It very roughly follows the route of the more famous Dakar Rally, visiting many of the same countries. Participants starting in Europe normally must go to Tarifa in Southern Spain. Then the course runs through Morocco, Western Sahara, Mauritania, Senegal and finally into the Gambia. The entrants must be driving a car worth approximately £100. Participants in the challenge are on their own, meaning that no assistance is rendered to motorists in case of a car breakdown or even if they become stranded. Mechanical reliability is the main obstacle to completing the course given that such vehicles are ordinary road cars and are mostly at the end of their useful lifetimes.Many cars cope very well until they have to go through the desert and then almost all suffer a great deal due to high temperatures and dust.Once the cars make it to Banjul in Gambia they are auctioned for, or donated to, charity.
