Looking forward to joining the Bushlapa group very soon ........................ Metalian and D/C bakkie have been sold. S/C bakkie will be picked up on Wed and Bosluis 2 has been ordered.
Downside...

Pietas, the camper unit we are buying bolts onto the chassis ie the loadbin is removed. Rear door opens, 2 steps and you walk in.
Look at the Bosluis 2.
And, although some good years on the far...

Francois, when we tour we tend to move camp every 2 - 3 days; with age catching up fast it is becoming a bit of a schlep to set up camp, so have decided to go the single cab route (another 2.4 GD6...

Does not sound right to me.
I tow a Metalian Mini with TTT and cruise happily in 6th at 100 kmph. It will change down if I accelerate to pass and then get up 130 quite easily.
2018 model.

And...

The prices of Elandsberg chalets (not sure about the other accom) do increase during the flower season - August/ September - so I guess you could call this the high season.

Here are some photos to whet your appetite. These were taken some years back (2009) on my first trip to the Richtersveld.

Did a 3,500 km trip from Cape Town to central Namibia and back last year towing a Metalian Mini with my 2.4 GD6 auto 4x4. We camped everywhere for 3 weeks and were fully loaded.
Best consumption...

+1 for what Ian said.

Here is a view of the Perdekloof camp.

Interesting to hear how other people have experienced the Agulhas NP.
We were there during Nov last year, also in a 2 sleeper seaside chalet and thoroughly enjoyed our stay....... and we were lucky...

Received mine 2 days ago. Should have done it years ago.
Thanks for the link Pieter

Here are some pics of a section of the Gamchab canyon. There are some good spots for a bushcamp.

If it is only 2 years old it should still be under warranty. Take it back to the dealer you bought it from and explain the issue. They will return it to NL at their cost and get it back to you.
BUT,...

Midas have a good good range of both hydraulic and mechanical at well less than R900.

I recently went to buy one (also for a Hilux) and was persuaded to get the mechanical one by Midas. Their...

Be aware that many silicon sealants contain acetic acid which may accelerate corrosion.
Rather get the appropriate Sika product.

The then and the now ...............

If I recall correctly Geelhoutbos is run by EC nature Conservation. We stayed there many years back and it was run down then.
We have since done a number of trips through the Baviaans and...

Are there any Infanta camper (Inkunzi) owners around??
Looking for impressions etc etc

Presently there is a high demand (and short supply) of the 200.
I doubt you would battle to get an extremely good price should you decide to sell it later.

Absolutely stunningly beautiful photographs. Congratulations.
Thanks for sharing.

Shadrack was helpful and efficient when I made my Blouberg reservation for Sept '21. All calls and emails were handled in a very professional way.

Try doing your 200km test at 110 kmph and 100 kmph. You may get a surprise.

Looking forward to hearing the opinion on this one.

Shortest route is via Eksteenfontein and then down the Helskloof pass (not to be confused with the Helskloof pass that you drive to exit the park).
Last time I did it, it was very corrugated in the...

Strongly recommend you go to or contact Setsolar in Epping. ........ and I am not affiliated to them in anyway except that I and number of friends have been using their products for many years...

Alex

Just go there (get there early) and enjoy the day in the park.
Your vehicle will be fine for virtually all the drives.

Looks like wax

I gather there are a number of people in your situation.
I would just have copies of correspondence in car with me at all times.
The chances of cops seeing your expired licence are remote, unless...

Don't compare petrol driven vehicle with a diesel vehicle

Could be, but where does it come from and how does it...

Any chance they are wax crystals??

If the camps are "fully booked" they won't allow you in.

Thanks to everyone who responded.
We decided to stay at The Honeynest. Thanks Andrew aka Hedgehog.
