If you have ever fancied yourself as James Bond (or Mrs Moneypenny), a Berkhamsted events company is giving you the chance to live the high life on a European adventure - and all for charity. 

Prestige Promotions on Berkhamsted High Street is organising a five-day rally across the continent, setting off from London and finishing in Monaco. 

The Monte Carlo or Bust event also includes five-star accommodation across Europe, plenty of fine food and a private visit to a collection of classic cars. 

To take part, you must be over 21 with a classic, luxury or 'interesting' car. 

The rally kicks off on Sunday, September 12, when James Bond actress Susan Hampshire drops the chequered flag to get the race underway. 

The route takes drivers to Reims, through the Black Forest, on to Switzerland and through Italy to Monaco on Friday, September 17, where F1 commentator Murray Walker will be waiting to wave them across the finish line. 

On the way, the rally also takes in celebrated driving routes including the Gotthard Pass, San Bernadino Pass and Furka Pass. 

Each team will be asked to contribute a donation to the event's designated charities and will be encouraged to raise sponsorship for their trip. 

Teams must register by Monday, July 12, and entry costs £3,850 for one car with two participants.
