Internet users await in anticipation to see if the three best friends who are driving from London will make it to Cape Town after their car; Edna snapped in half on day 59.
Karen, Spence and James declined help from Toyota SA following the emergency reel they shared of Edna who finally gave up after a few ailments through the journey.
In the video, Karen said they have opened a PayPal account for donations because repairing such damage will be expensive and might take many days. The rear chassis had multiple severe cracks and had completely collapsed. She added they are not sure if they will be able to continue with their journey.

Toyota SA commented: “Hey Karen, James, and Spence! We’ve been loving your epic journey from London to Cape Town. Edna’s been a trooper, but we’re sad to see her struggling. To keep the adventure rolling, we’d love to send Edna’s newly launched big brother, the Hilux GR-Sport, to complete your journey to Cape Town! Please check your DM for details.”
The trio responded to the offer: “Big thank you to Toyota SA for offering to help out with a new car, but we need Edna to get to Cape Town and will try our best to get her fixed.”
In an Instagram story the besties explained: “We cannot abandon Edna, she is our mother and one of the crew. We started the journey with her and we aim to complete the journey with her. We can’t give up on her now. She is struggling but she will get through this,” read the caption.
