Peter’s vintage tractor trek: from Scotland to Scandinavia all for charity Peter Matheson was determined to do something extraordinary to raise awareness of teenage cancer, when the son of a family friend tragically passed away last year at the age of just 19. Peter set a goal of raising a staggering £100,000 for the Tom Bowdidge Foundation and UNICEF. But how? To Peter, the answer was obvious: buy a vintage 1972 MF 135 tractor, name her ‘Annie’ and drive 8,000 miles! The entire trip will take an estimated three to four months and Peter will be accompanied by his faithful Labrador, Amber, to keep him company. Peter set off in August having made ‘Annie’ roadworthy with the help of a new set of wheels donated by Massey Ferguson. He is travelling from John O’Groats to Land’s End, then to Dover, across the water and is then passing through France, Germany and Scandinavia to Nordkapp, hopefully witnessing the Aurora Borealis along the way. He’ll then drive ‘Annie’ back through Finland and up to John O’Groats, via Lands End! Readers can donate on the Tractor Bumble 2014 Facebook Page. And with working pressures of up to 3000 psi, the Reno can help to tackle the most stubborn of cleaning problems.
