In R4 to Togo
We are planning to reach Togo - via Morocco, Mauritania, Senegal, Mali, Burkina Faso, Benin - on a Renault 4TL. We'll try to sell (or get rid off) the car in Lomé and fly back. The vehicle is in good conditions: 10 years old, 70.000 kms. I have two main concerns:
1) the route. First problem in Mauritania: Nouadhibou-Nouakchott. Is better the train to Choum (how difficult is the Choum-Atar piste on a 2wd?)? Or better the costal route? Second problem seems to be from Senegal to Mali. Is the Tambacounda-Kayes road possible on a 2wd? And what about from Kayes on to Bamako? Or is the only option the train?
2) paper work. It seems like I can get to Lomé without a carnet. What about selling or getting rid off the car there? What paperwork does it involve? Does anyone have any contact in Lomé?.
Thanks
