Bangers 2 Benidorm: Bee-striped Range Rover heads for Spain to give a 10-year-old boy hope
A 20-year-old motor and a very important mission: could you help Huxley’s story buzz all the way from Dover to […]
A 20-year-old Range Rover adorned with a bee-themed decoration, known as the "Bee-nidorm Express," embarks on a journey from Dover to Benidorm in May 2027 to provide hope for a 10-year-old boy named Huxley. Huxley suffers from a rare and aggressive form of leukemia that requires specialist care, which may necessitate traveling abroad at significant cost.
The car, with the plate BEE 1 NID, has been driven over 300,000 miles and lacks a service history. Organizer Steve Waterman, who resides in Calahonda, chose to dedicate the adventure entirely to Huxley's cause. The drivers, dressed in silly bee outfits, plan to cross multiple countries, including France, Italy, Switzerland, and Andorra, before reaching Benidorm and beyond.
Donors receive a personalized bee sticker on the car, with larger gifts earning larger bees. The fundraising goal of £5,000 has been reached with 32 percent of contributions coming in, totaling £1,586 from 43 donations.
