A TEAM of employees from a Crewe telecoms business will set off on a Top Gear-style challenge this week.
eZe-Talk’s Bajan Bandits team will drive from Newbury to Ireland in a vehicle purchased for less than £500.
Mike Taitt, Steve Walsh and Mike Walsh will complete the 500 mile trip in a 14-year-old, three-litre Jaguar S-Type SE.
Starting out on September 17, the team will join 30 other cars in the race to the finish line in Ireland, raising money Action Through Enterprise and Honeypot Children's Charity.
Mike Taitt, chief executive at eZe-Talk, said: “We are really looking forward to taking part in the event and hopefully making it to the finish line with challenges and visits along the way to some iconic race tracks.
“It’s a great way to raise money for two fantastic charities and we look forward to meeting the other teams and seeing which cars we’re up against.”
