Going Nowhere Slowly was a South African travel-orientated television series, that attained cult status. It follows a number of off beat travellers as they cruise across Southern Africa, in an old American muscle car (usually a '1966s Chevrolet Impala known as the Chilli Pepper). Along the way, the characters share their thoughts and experiences, many times ending up in sticky situations, such as running out of gas, falling out of moving cars and with the occasional injury they move through the least travelled spots to find the unique and crazy people who bring the magic to those destinations.
