8000 km on bicycles from the North Cape in Norway via Scotland, England and France to Gibraltar for children in need – starting on 1 August, the initiators and key players of the "Every Mile Counts" charity campaign, Andreas Isler and Marcus Niessl, rise to the challenge. The amateur athletes from Switzerland are supported by a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. The aim is to raise 75 000 Swiss franks for the Pro Juventute Foundation and ROKJ, the youth organization of the Rotary Clubs. The money will benefit the integration of economically and socially disadvantaged children.

As an automotive city of distinction, Stuttgart is also home to two of the most spectacular car museums. Given that a visit to both museums is a highly attractive proposition, the Porsche Museum and the Mercedes-Benz Museum are launching a new offer: from now until the end of the year, visitors presenting an entrance ticket to one of the museums will get 25 percent off the regular entry price at the other museum.
