Man what a sweet ride, though I'm not sure it has enough ground clearance for my tastes.. and I wonder how the weight characteristics are in that back end.
[edit] forgot the link
SA classifieds T5 Doka Expidition vehicle
I found these while following a SA Classifieds link. very nice and likely very pricey.

Very cool!
The intake on those is pretty low. |

480,000 South African Rand = $46,827 USD. Cheaper than some of GoWesty's Syncros.
Of course, then there is trying to import it.... |

In South Africa, the 1980~2003 VW Transporter T3 (i.e. VW Vanagon in USA parlance!?!) was super ceded by the 2003 onward VW Transporter T5, the 1993~2003 VW Transporter T4 (i.e. VW Eurovan in USA parlance!?!) having not featured in South Africa.
Unfortunately, the advertisement link you cited is no longer active! :cry: Do you recall any details of the camper-unit's internal features; particularly the number of sleeping berths?

Keep in mind that average salary & wage rates in the USA, are probably MUCH HIGHER than in South Africa! :shock:
The most IMPORTANT feature of the South African built VW Transporters, is that they are RIGHT HAND DRIVE! 8) |
