Exciting news for urban fleets! 🚛⚡

We have officially launched our newest tyre innovation, specifically engineered to meet the unique demands of Electric Refuse Vehicles (ERVs). Developed in collaboration with Vipal, this new tyre is designed to optimise fleet efficiency, range and whole-life costs... without sacrificing the durability needed for tough operations.

The first production tyres are now hitting the road for real-world testing with key partner fleets as we continue to support the transition to cleaner, more sustainable transport.

🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL... THE RUBBER HAS ARRIVED! 🚨

There comes a point in every Skinflint Rally build where you have to ask yourself...

"Do I spend money making the car look pretty... or making sure it actually survives?"

Considering the old tyres had all the structural integrity of a soggy Rich Tea biscuit, the decision was fairly easy... 😂

So I am incredibly proud (and genuinely humbled) to announce that Hankook Tyres UK and Vaculug are officially sponsoring my Skinflint Rally adventure! 💗

This September I'll be attempting to drive a £600 pink Mazda MX-5 from Calais to Nice, taking on some of Europe's most incredible roads, including the legendary Great St Bernard Pass, all whilst raising money and awareness for CoppaFeel!

Thanks to Hankook, I'll be doing it on tyres I can genuinely trust.

Thanks to Vaculug, those tyres will be fitted and ready for the journey ahead.

Let's be honest...

✔️ The tyres are brand new.
✔️ The rest of the car is... "well experienced."
✔️ There is a genuine possibility the tyres are now worth more than the rest of the car. 🤣

The irony isn't lost on me that I'm now supported by two giants of the tyre industry, while Skin Two UK are supplying me with a rather eye-catching latex catsuit.

So my entire rally strategy now appears to be...

Maximum rubber. Minimum dignity. 😂

But on a serious note...

The Skinflint Rally has never been about having the newest car or the biggest budget.

It's about adventure, resilience, laughter, meeting incredible people, and raising as much money as possible for their chosen charity. For me it's CoppaFeel! - encouraging everyone to check their breasts, chest and pecs because early detection really does save lives.

Companies don't have to support challenges like this.

So when businesses choose to back ordinary people doing extraordinary (or in my case ridiculous) things for charity, it means far more than just a logo on a car.

It means they become part of the journey.

To everyone at Hankook and Vaculug...

Thank you for believing in this slightly bonkers idea.

Thank you for helping make it possible.

And thank you for helping keep me safely on the road as I head towards Nice via the Great St Bernard Pass.

💗 A very special thank you also goes to Cozy Travel. Without their introduction and support behind the scenes, this partnership simply wouldn't have happened. Sometimes it's the people making the connections who deserve just as much recognition as those providing the support, and I'll always be grateful for that.

Now... if only someone would like to sponsor the rest of the car... 😂💗
