Your help is needed CTzens, to help #SavePhil!

Hello CTzens! As you’re all probably aware, after the #CTMeet2016, poor old Phil is still sitting alone and helpless in Germany. Well, after me and my friend Nico had such an epic time traveling across 4 countries just to meet the CT Lads, Boosted Borris, SeenThroughGlass (Sam), and a whole bunch of awesome CarThrottle users from all across Europe, we have decided to try to help Alex out!

What's the plan?

Well, it’s actually rather simple in theory; they plan on rescuing Phil, by driving back to Germany, and putting Phil on a trailer. Sounds simple, right? Well, not quite. Trailers cost money, not a lot of money, but, they still cost bit. The same goes for all the things that go with a trip like this, such as fuel, accommodation, tolls, and so on.

That’s where you CTzens come in.

How can you help?

Look at that happy little face!

‘What can I do to help!?’ I hear you cry. Well, as explained above, these things cost money, so we need you guys to help raise that money. Don’t be alarmed though! You don’t have to give all your money that you’ve saved for your project car! If you head on over to our Indigogo Campaign , you’ll see that anything from as little as £2 will make all the difference, and any contribution will get you some awesome CarThottle perks and prizes :)

What if we raise more than the £500 target?

If we raise more than our goal of £500, we will donate any extra funds that you guys raise to the Make A Wish Foundation. They are a pretty awesome cause, that aim to help unwell children have awesome days out, including meeting stars, and getting passenger rides in epic cars, as a couple of examples.

Does Alex and CarThrottle know about our plan?

Yes! We had a meeting with them the other day, so they were aware of our plans, and to make sure they were happy to give us the green light. They loved it so much that they suggested that we join them on their journey, and also some awesome perks that were even more amazing than we had originally planned!
The whole trip will be filmed and documented by CarThrottle, as part of the #ProjectMX5 series on YouTube.

The campaign is being organised by myself and Nico, with the kind permission and support of Car Throttle, who have agreed to provide some great perks for everyone who supports the campaign.

Why are we doing this campaign?

He misses you too Phil :(

As we said before we enjoyed driving to Germany so much to hang out with some fantastic people, and we felt like giving something back to CarThrottle for planning such an amazing event.
Not only that, but it’s the spirit of a Petrolhead, Car Guy/Girl, and CTzen to come together and help others in need.

So please, if you have any spare money, even if it’s only £1, think about poor little Phil, and show your support. #SavePhil

He has no oil and won’t hold his oil in, hence why they’re not driving him

What makes it worse is that massive great grin on your face while you’re taking the photo. Next time, don’t park a skip in your driveway!

This really is one of the most incredible things I’ve seen since being with CT and is EXACTLY why CT is the greatest car community in the world!

From my part, I’ll be delighted to have Phil back, but my hope here is that we raise a good amount of money for an amazing charity. Phil would be very proud to truly have made a difference to kids’ lives!

You and all other CT staff have been amazing. We all really enjoy the content you guys upload on YouTube and you guys created this website as a means of bringing us car guys together. For that reason, it is the least we could do really!

If I had some spare cash to donate I would, it’s great that the extra is being given to make-a-wish too! :D

Anyone else having trouble with the Indiegogo page? It wont accept any payment type I enter, be it paypal or my card, and their support isn’t helpful. Any other way we can donate to help?

There’s still about 28 days to go, so hopefully you’ll find a solution by then. If not, perhaps you can donate directly to the Make a Wish Foundation?

Not being funny, but CT is a multi-million pound company are they not? Surely they can spare £500 to get one of its key stars back to the UK?

No, they’re not sadly

The point of this is more than bringing a car back. The point is charity and community spirit.
