Alex, The Wondering Englishman, is returning to Ukraine, and this time he will be delivering a British pickup truck to Ukrainian soldiers fighting in the war. The journey goes from Dover to Kyiv.
Soldiers use these trucks for rescuing injured compatriots, for moving units to and from the front, and for logistics delivery. It is said that each truck can save 40 lives.
Alex will deliver the truck to Car for Ukraine, which will make the truck battle-ready with a mechanical upgrade and armour to protect the soldiers.

What Makes C4U Trucks a Perfect Balance?
Short answer: We spend money on what really matters and save on everything else to deliver more trucks every time.
- Frontline pickups: C4U has provided 800+ frontline pickup trucks since 2022, with funds raised EUR 7M (February 1, 2026).
- C4U deploys mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, dated 2010-2017, with low mileage, fully serviced and upgraded to last 20-30,000 km without technical issues.
- These pickups are most favoured by Ukraine military due to being some the toughest and most reliable pickups for the frontline in Ukraine.
- Armour for life: C4U is one of a few groups that focus on making vehicles battle-ready, not just cars. One key element for every truck that has a risk of being hit: we armour them with 8mm steel plates around vital places of humans (neck, knees, head, body) as well as around the vehicles' vital places - such as engine parts, radiator, turbo, accumulator to keep the vehicle moving even after being shelled.
- Direct support to Ukraine: Spending your donor dollars inside Ukraine supports the survival of Ukraine as a nation and develops in-country skills and capabilities. Engineers doing mechanical work and armouring vehicles, visual designers, patch and pin makers, and other paid personnel are all in Ukraine.
- Value for donor money: The main personnel with C4U are all volunteers working pro-bono. Our costs are kept to a minimum (no marketing, paid photographers, event planners). The currency value of UAH is 40x lower than EU compared to USD.
