"I went with my 20-year-old son. I had wanted to go with two of my children but one chickened out. I wanted Quincy to get the experience because of his age. It will be a big deal for him to have the Accra to London road trip on his CV."
The two drove in a Lexus RX350 for the 10,000km journey which took 16 days to be covered. Many did not see the Lexus making the trip to the end but it became the 'hero' of the journey among the cars used.
Franklin said he drove through Africa and Quincy did all the driving when they got to Europe because he was tired.
