Hi guys

Thanks for the kind welcome.
Sorry, my afrikaans is lousy. I understand just fine but find it difficult to write.
Some info on the vehicle.
Its got 270 thou on it, apart from the engine that is only 60k.
I cooked the old engine in the Richtersveld, not noticing a water leak and rushing for the border for closing time. More here for those that can put up with loads of family photos http://www.clemventures.co.za/?p=120" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

No mods to the vehicle, apart from high-lift jack points, second fuel tank and deep cycle battery for the fridge. Got a nice simple ignition relay for the second battery after the idiot National Luna thing with all the blinky LED's didn't work.
Stoked with the Alui-cab canopy with multiple access doors for camping, bought second hand from a mate.
I'm hunting for a workshop manual, if anyone has a spare to sell. An old-school Haynes type book one.

Oh yes, the jersey cow design is stick-on decals, so if I ever decide to sell it I can remove them.

Cheers
Vaughn

Don't apologise for your language of choice, Vaughan. The general rule is supposed to be that if someone posts in English, replies should be in the same (if you can). However, many opt to express themselves in their preferred tongue so as to be better understood, and that's fine. The only time we urge the guys to stick to one language is when we have posts from visitors abroad, in such cases English is universal. ;-)
