Looks like we're going to raise a lot of money for charity! #SavePhil
A few days ago, a friend and I came up with a way to #SavePhil, and it involved bringing the whole Car Throttle community together. We visited Alex and the guys at Car Throttle on Friday to let them know our plan, and I’ve honestly never seen a man more excited about seeing his car again!

With the greenlight from Car Throttle to go ahead with it, we put together an Indiegogo campaign to help #SavePhil and bring him back home. We all knew that the community would pitch in a little over the next few weeks, but we had totally underestimated you guys.
In less than a day, you guys have totally exceeded our expectations. Not only have we hit our target of £500, but we’re now sitting at £702.
Now that we’ve raised over £500, we’re certainly looking forward to rescuing Phil, but right now we’re even more excited that we’ve raised £202 so far for the Make a Wish Foundation.
Check out the stats so far on the perks below.
The whole idea of the campaign was to bring the community together and to promote a strong community spirit amongst car enthusiasts like us.
It’s all about helping each other out in any way that you can, and you guys have shown how great the car community is.
Here’s that campaign link again:

as much as i love phill why cant alex pay for it?
its his car
Alex in a few weeks, “Hey guys check out my new e92 M3”
Glad I could help out :)
Wait what happened??
I don’t think I’ve seen a single female name on the list yet, but we’re now at £867. You guys :)
just donated a pound, I know its not much but every little bit helps and the money is going to a great cause!
Can’t wait for Phil to come back to UK, get back on the road and be featured in CT videos!
Also I’m really happy to see such a large sum being raised for Make a Wish.
I think that CT should do this kind charity fundraising occasionally, it is obvious that CT community is so strong that it takes just a couple of days to raise target money for charities. And carguys from CT will be known as people who help others, not just those who drive around in their noisy rides :)
Can’t wait for my sticker to arrive!
I bet Ethan’s thrilled about that! Did you ask him first or just drop 100 postcards on his desk?
What happened to phil?
This is incredible. £867 at the time of writing. Shall we try and get it to the big £1000 by the end of today? :)
