Tři kluci se rozhodli objet svět ve vysloužilém londýnském taxíku, který sehnali přes Ebay, a to po nápadu, který vznikl při pijatyce v pubu. Cestování letadlem nebo vlakem se jim zdálo fádní, a tak se pustili do dobrodružství bez peněz a technických dovedností. Chtěli zažít jízdu v legendárním "Black Cab" a zapsat rekord v Guinessově knize. Netušili, jak se vypořádat s přepravou vozu přes moře nebo jeho opravou v odlehlých oblastech. Vydali se z Londýna do Paříže, Moskvy, Finska a přes Čínu, Pákistán, Indii, Irán, Irák až do Austrálie, přičemž objeli tři čtvrtiny zeměkoule s minimálním rozpočtem. Stanovali na ruských dálnicích, přenocovali na palebném postavení v Íránu a vyhnuli se ozbrojenému doprovodu v Belučistánu. Cestovali jen jednou za pár týdnů, když byl alkohol levný nebo zdarma. Po 15 měsících a 43 000 milích se taxík "Hannah" vrátil do Londýna. Tři kamarádi, jeden taxík, žádný plán, ale přesto se vydali na cestu kolem světa. Tato roadmovie a dobrodružný příběh probouzí chuť po dobrodružství a ukazuje, že takové zážitky si může každý prožít, pokud se odváží vyrazit za nimi.

When three friends - Paul, Johno and Leigh - fuelled by an alcohol-induced dream to travel the world, clicked 'buy' on an iconic London cab called Hannah, little did they know what they were letting themselves in for. Leaving the Big Smoke in their taxi, bound for Sydney, the lads began a 43,000-mile trip that would take them off the beaten track to some of the most dangerous and deadly places on the earth. By the time they arrived home, they would manage, against all the odds, to circumnavigate the globe, and, in doing so, break two World Records. From altercations with the Iranian Secret Police to narrowly escaping the Taliban, the trio's adventure is filled with hair-raising escapades. Feel the fear, frolic in the fun and meet the hundred passengers the taxi picked up along the way, as the authors take you on their action-packed journey.
aber einmal um die Welt
Nach einem Abend im Pub kommen die Freunde Paul, Johno und Leigh auf eine verrückte Idee: Sie kaufen ein altes schwarzes Taxi namens Hannah und gehen damit auf Weltreise – von London nach Sydney, mit dem größtmöglichen Umweg. Denn so würde es jeder Taxifahrer machen, der etwas auf sich hält. Ihr 70.000 Kilometer langer Weg führt sie in die abgelegensten und gefährlichsten Regionen: In Moskau landen sie hinter Gittern, im Iran werden sie als Spione dingfest gemacht und in Pakistan sind sie nie ohne bewaffnete Eskorte unterwegs, um nicht von den Taliban gekidnappt zu werden. Und auch das Taxi Hannah entpuppt sich als Diva, die immer wieder gepflegt und repariert werden muss. Doch die drei Freunde schaffe es mit viel Humor, allen Hindernissen zu trotzen; sie brechen zwei Weltrekorde und umrunden die ganze Erde mit ihrem alten Taxi.
