Hi,
yes it's UK registered and will still be mot'ed on our return although we'll need tax.
We're due back December ish depending on shipping times. Which bits would you be interested in seperately? We could talk prices and maybe bring them back specially for you.
Thanks,
Paul (currently in Rwanda if anyone wants to view)

Hello Phansford,
I might be interested. I will fly to Johannesburg the 24 of october. Me and my girlfriend plan a trip from there through Botswana , Zambia onwards to Tanzania.
When will you be in Botswana?
Is the car in good condition, with other words, will it work for another three months or would it need a lot of repairs etc. Do you think I would be able to sell it in Tanzania , since it is UK registered? (I am a dutchmen)

Hi Krullen,
Unfortunately we're about to leave Botswana in the next few days so will probably miss you.
We're intending to be in South Africa again on the 1st of december.
And yes the car is in really (I mean really!) good condition. I know everyone says it but I can't see how you could find a better car for overlanding than this model.
Thanks,
Paul

Hi,
I've also updated the main post to change the availability dates.
This is an amazing car that's given us very few problems. It's tough and always starts, parts are cheap and available. The perfect car for the cheap trip across the continent.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
