Your an idiot and you can never do it.
But where would we be if people didn't rise to challenges. Good luck, hope you do it. This might appeal to a certain Mr Branson, fuel company or even Volvo. Chris

Travelling around europe is easy. not so sure about the rest of it, like australia and stuff, but fair play to you if you do it!
Bear in mind not all roads will be as good as european ones. Look at Jack Osbournes mongol rally that was on recently. Eastern block roads are completely non existant. When are you planning to set off? for how long? have you worked out a route to drive and costs? good luck to you Interesting to hear more details!
