On this occasion, Team L.I.F.E said that prior to the onset of the journey, many raised doubts about how they would pull-off such a long journey in a 2 wheel drive sedan, but their Fiat Linea T- Jet performed well without giving them any maintenance or performance issues. Team LIFE ensured they visit most of the renowned places on their tour. They visited places like Caspian Sea in Iran, the Vatican City, Camp Nou stadium in Barcelona, Palace of Versailles and the Millau Viaduct bridge.
