A County Durham couple have turned a run-down "banger" into a Toy Story-themed dream car that they're then set to drive across Europe to raise cash for a tot with an extremely rare genetic disease.
Houghton-le-Spring's Noah Stubbs, 3, is thought to be the only child in Britain to have the condition called Gemin5. It is a global disorder that affects motor skills and mobility. Though he is a happy little boy, he is non-verbal and his balance is a particular issue.
There are understood to be around 15 people worldwide with the condition. Noah's condition makes life tough for him and he requires a range of adapted and protective equipment. To help fund this, Irene and Paul Reid - friends of his grandmother Michelle Rose-McCaffery - are driving the old car thousands of miles across Europe as part of the Benidorm or Bust rally.
