Semey, Kazakhstan
70mph spin off the rd and down a 8ft verge backwards seems tame compared to Expats hitting a cow and half destroying their yaris. Fuel injection light also now on all the time... @

Astrakhan, Russia
about to head to kazak border having bombed through the very good roads of Russia. Improvement on Ukraine in every regard, even police don't take your money even after being caught speeding and overtaking illegally.
Donets'ka oblast, Ukraine

Dnipropetrovs'k, Ukraine
had to pay 20 dollars bribe for a traffic offence (actual rather than fake) in Oleksandrija and are aiming to hit the border 2night. Roads alright apart from the occasional sickening impact as we drive 75 mph that has us wincing and stops the radio working for awhile @
Ternopil's'ka oblast, Ukraine
the car has been saved! Only 15 quid! The tiger has lost 1 of its lives. Onwards and eastwards
