Travellers AutoBarn Sydney recently had the feeling, that it would be time to work proactively against seasonal affective disorders….so we invited some hostels and partner to a Sunday-BBQ-Session. Under the bright blue sky we would enjoy good food and some nice drinks with friends. So it happened…
Hi there! My name is Sam, and I’m one of the three gap year students who are currently taking the Getaway Car on a 10 day tour up the east coast. Traveller’s Auto Barn were nice enough to lend it to us provided we write a few words about our experiences. We’re also shooting some random footage to hopefully have a video for the site at the end of it.
Michael, Constantin & Sabrina won the GetAway Car in September 2009 – check out their trip adventure:
After sorting out our credit cards, we were able to depart a day late from Sydney at last to escape from the lousy weather, and were heading into the tropical climate of Cairns.
Full of adventure and a sack full of expectations in the luggage, we were as much mileage as possible behind us and made our first stop in Hat Head right on a picturesque, secluded beach on which we celebrated until late into the night, our long-awaited road trip start.
Unfortunately, we were awakened the next day shortly after sunrise by heavy rains and this drove us further up north into sunny Queensland.
Alcohol, music and a free car, what else can you wish for?!? During a fantastic night out at The Gaff in Sydney, one lucky winner took the first prize home and is now driving the GetAway Car up to Cairns! For free!
Our first GetAway Car winner! Still without painting on the car…but this international mix of guys had so much fun, they wouldn’t even have noticed it, if we had painted the car over night! Keep your eyes open for the next winner! Somewhere between Sydney and Cairns…
