In contrast some Aussie raiders had the benefit of being ''home'' and you should see the amoumnt stuff they put in their cars. Completely unnecessary, some of the 2cv's doĆ­ng raids were driving with the arse on the ground and the bumper point to the sky.

Aussie bashing is always good fun though, to be fair I should point out that this photo originates from 1988 the first raid australia. This photo is regularly used as a bad example is hardly representative of current 2cv raids.

Ok since it's a bit like question hour now, how often do you have the chance to wash? For how many days should you pack clothes?

I would' say that we at least visit an officiel camp evert third day, that means at least enough water for washing but I can't guarante that there will be a laundry machine and if you bring water for it you can always wash at least underwear at a wild camp.

Don't need a laundry machine, some clean water is enough for a quick wash.
