The Greatest Motoring Adventure – 7th Peking to Paris Rally - 2019
The Peking to Paris Motor Challenge is unique in the motoring world – a true
endurance motor rally following in the wheel-tracks of the original
pioneers of 1907. Driving an old car nearly half way around the world with
a bunch of like-minded enthusiasts, against the clock, with the added spice
of timed sections, makes Peking to Paris the longest and toughest
driving challenge for Vintage and Classic cars.
