bought without seeing

Post by roel »

Hi guys, I just wanted to let you know I bought a 2.2 petrol SFA 19888 just on pictures. I am from Holland and I am going to do a trip for 6 months through southern Africa with my girl friend. It comes with a GR Traveltop canopy and has just done 160.000km. A brand new engine was fitted 9.000 km's ago with clutch and radiator. Cheers Roel van Kuetsem

Hi guys, I will be the last 2 weeks of November in Kaapstad to register the car. I will drive it to Joburg where I will leave it for December. On the 7th of January 2014 I will be back with my girlfriend Lon to start our journey. We will go down to Durban to visit friends. Than to Kaapstad to visit the former owner who became a friend as well. We will go than by the west coast up north to Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe to finish again in Joburg.

If one would like we can become friends on Facebook. Just search for roel van kuetsem. To read the report of our trip become friends with Roellon Afrika on Facebook. We will write a report however only in Dutch...

Cheers and thanks for the kind replies.
