A FATHER and son from Ipswich are taking on an emissions free coast-to-coast journey, with Ardnamurchan Lighthouse the westerly checkpoint.
Beginning on Friday October 6, Matt Porter, 48, and his father Ken, 75, will attempt to complete a 1,200 mile round-trip from Ness Point in East Anglia, the most easterly point in the UK, to Ardnamurchan Lighthouse, the most westerly point in mainland UK, using a Tesla Model S 100D electric car.
The challenge is expected to last four days with breaks for ‘supercharging’ at charge points along with overnight stays in Ullswater and Scotland.
