According to Shecanic, the only female who made the trip, Quincy undertook the journey in a bid to bond with his father.

Even more impressive is the fact Franklin and his 20-year-old son used a Lexus RX350 for the 10,000km journey which took 16 days to be covered. The Lexus was not a car that many had given any chance to make it.

It was no wonder that the father and son caught much attention upon their arrival in London.
