"Through the Sahara and back" 

Dear customers, dear Fiat 500-friends,

in our last newsletter we reported about Burkhard Hildebrandt's journey through the Sahara Desert with his Fiat 500. During his Africa tour he visits HIV-infected persons to give them new courage to face their lifes.

Because his story and his project in Africa are touching us the Axel Gerstl Company is supporting his tour with free spare parts and free delivery during his whole journey through the Sahara and back. 

In today's newsletter you can also read another interesting report of Burkhard Hildebrandt's journey.

Please be informed that our current offers are still valid til March 2nd 2010 and that we offer a broad range of Fiat 600 spare parts in our online shop now.

Kind regards,

Axel Gerstl's team

 

 

 


 

 > Support of the Axel Gerstl Company

To support Burkhard Hildebrandt's project we provide him with all technical parts for free which he needs to keep his Fiat 500 going during his journey.

We also deliver Mr. Hildebrandt these spare parts for free in any country in which he stays.  

We hope to make a contribution to his journey and above all to help the HIV-infected persons in Africa who he visits to give them new courage and happiness. 

 > Travelogue: "Through the Sahara and back"

What happened since our last report?

In his yellow Fiat 500 Burkhard Hildebrandt has already covered over 3200 km and is in Africa now. His tour led him through Germany and Switzerland to France and then to Gibraltar in the south of Spain. There he traveled by ferry to Morocco on February 13th.  

At a maximum topspeed of 80 km/h the little Fiat 500 resisted nearly all the pressure of such an exhausting journey. There were only some problems with the air filter and the carburetor. But thanks to the help of the breakdown service the Fiat 500 could reach the repair shop where the needed repair was done.

The journey continued and after a short stop in Ceuta/Morocco Hildebrandt drove to Rabat on February 15th. But due to the high traffic volume in the North African cities he did not stay long there. The risk of an accident for the little Fiat 500 was to high to stay there longer so he continued his tour heading for his destination: the Sahara.

In our next newsletter we will, of course, report about Burkhard Hildebrandt's journey again and keep you up to date. But if you like to read more about the tour through the Sahara or if you like to support him you can visit his website www.reise-der-hoffnung.info.
