However, when Nigel, Kev and I took the car over to him, Harvey had been busy and had already created an amazing design that really captured the spirit of the Scally Rally, but also met our objective of recognising all the local businesses that had helped us out getting the car on the road.
The key question was, would the design he had created look as good on the car as it did on his computer? We didn't need to wait long to find out, the result is awesome. We absolutely love it. In fact Nigel has become significantly, almost romantically, attached to the car to the point whereby he is seriously considering driving her back from Rimini.
We're currently in the process of showcasing the car at various locations and events in and around Norwich. Kev had her outside the Aviva offices last week and I have her parked in pole position outside Virgin Money this week. The comments and feedback we have received have been really positive and everyone loves the look of the car.
However, more importantly it's really working well in terms of promoting the main reason for this whole adventure which is to raise funds for The Sick Children's Trust.
We have already raised over £1,300 and over the next few weeks we have a few more show case events planned including a golf day, a good friends 50th birthday and a quiz night, so hopefully by the time we set off we will have smashed through our original target of £1,500.
