Fancy the Gumball, but don't reckon you could put up with the toffs? Then check out CzechWrecks.

No fancy supercars, speed boats or planes here. No siree. This is a straight dash from London to Prague in cars that cost no more than £100.

Inspired by the sell-out Staples2Naples event, which uses the same low-budget rules, CzechWrecks runs through France, over the Swiss Alps and into Italy, before heading into the Czech Republic and Prague.

A huge part of the event's appeal is competing in cars that you can simply throw away when you finish the race, and the organisers even have a prize for the team that breaks down earliest in the race and manages to hitchhike to the finish.

There's a £1,000 prize for the winning team on the CzechWrecks run, which starts on September 1. If you fancy leaving a trail of exhaust smoke across Europe, have a look at www.czechwrecks.com.

Come to think of it, we think we might have a go. Watch this space...
