Citroën Xantia in the Moroccan Desert | Amsterdam Dakar Challenge 2013

The Amsterdam Dakar Challenge is a 7.000 km. long roadtrip for charity. Participants gather in Amsterdam, The Netherlands with €500 max. cars (around $600). Being sponsored by companies and individuals back home, the aim is to drive to Dakar, Senegal in three weeks and getting the car there in one piece. Quite a challenge, considering the rough terrain that they have to tackle on their way.

 

After finishing in Senegal, the teams drive to Banjul, The Gambia where their cars will be auctioned. The money that is raised by the auction and the money raised back home are donated to local charities.
