Lost property in Namibia
The message below says it all. This appeared on the Hilux4x4 Facebook page .... https://www.facebook.com/hilux4x4.co.za ... 0012083160
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Re: Lost property in Namibia
Hi Andy,
The Poster on the Hilux Face Book Page, Does he have a picture of the trailer, or The registration number, which was what I would be looking at in the picture.
In that way we could trace the owner, to get something of his back to him. Big loss, but maybe he could have done some type of recovery.
Years ago we emptied the trailer into the vehicle and transported the trailer on top of the vehicle, but situations differ...

Re: Lost property in Namibia
No picture posted. I guess he's wanting the owner to verify ownership with the reg. no.

Re: Lost property in Namibia
So tell him to contact owner through registration, Or,
If he needs assistance, then he can tell us to assist & he can verify ownership around the found property...

Re: Lost property in Namibia
No, not broken but just realised that it's a FB Messenger communication to the FB page admin ..... of course you cannot all read it, so here is the message .....

Re: Lost property in Namibia
Edge, if I can get the reg no, do you still have a contact to get the owner details through NATIS?

Re: Lost property in Namibia
Hi Andy, where there is a will there is a way.
If it is to help a forum member, a plan will be made...
If you can find out exactly where the trailer is, I will be in the vicinity during May,
but may not be driving the exact track/road that they used/where the trailer is.
We tend to move off the tourist routes where possible.
The going then normally has less corrugations/damage...

Re: Lost property in Namibia
We're still not having any luck tracing the owner. Apparently the number plate and licence disc were removed (maybe for de-registering purposes or building a new trailer).
In the meantime we have a couple of pics and hopefully someone recognises it.
. .
If anyone recognises the trailer and knows who the owner is, please let us know. Thanks.
