A group of Welsh football fans are making the 5,000-mile journey to the Qatar World Cup, but some are sceptical that they will make it for their first World Cup game, as they are travelling by electric car.
Former Cardiff City footballer Scott Young will be joined by Nick Smith, Huw Talfryn Walters and Walter Pennell, who are all from south Wales, on the cross-continent adventure dubbed Electric Car To Qatar. They are leaving Wales from the Football Association of Wales' (FAW) headquarters at the Vale Resort in Hensol, Vale of Glamorgan, in their solely electric MG4 - nicknamed Morris - on October 28.
Despite the doubt, the group are confident they will be there for the first World Cup game in three weeks time. Nick said: "We know most people think this is a mad plan - we've even had Gareth Bale himself sat in the car looking a bit doubtful about whether we can actually achieve this.
