Buying a Land Cruiser in UK or South Africa?
Firstly, if a thread containing this question already exists or I'm in the wrong forum location please feel free to point me in the right direction!
I'm looking to do an overland trip in Africa and am wanting to know opinions on whether it's best to buy a Land Cruiser in UK or SA. My assumption (from past research) is SA is best as it's cheaper and the vehicle is more likely to be kitted out to handle African terrain (though of course I can always worry about vehicle specifics at a later date). Is this thinking accurate?
I had thought it would be easier to start and finish in the UK but if we're talking more money for a less worthy vehicle if I bought in the UK then I'm inclined to change the route to start in Cape Town instead and buy the car there . . . . .
What do people think? Any opinions welcome.
Thanks for the advice.
Sam.
