Hi and thanks for your replies...
I bought a new carnet from the RAC in Bristol and went to the customs office in Windhoek. There they stamped my old carnet out and the new one in, so I didn't have to leave the SACU region at all. Although the person had to look up the procedure of how to do it I was out in about half an hour.
It's now parked in a private place in Namibia until my return later this year. Not sure if I can do the same procedure for another year, if not I consider going up to Zambia.
Mike, any good places to leave a truck in Zambia for a year?
With regards to the Trans-Kalahari Inn near the Airport, I have met several overlanders who have not reported good things about vehicle storage there. One guy's truck (locked up in an also locked up garage) was broken into and the Kalahari Inn owner refused any responsibility. We left our vehicle at the Ondekaremba guest farm (15 minutes from the airport). Nice people there...
Cheers, Micha
