Manny doesn't need a prado to impress milfs. He has a closet full of Jeep shirts for that.

Anyone looking to buy a new Fortuner is senile, take R700k and buy a second hand low km Prado.
More bang for buck and at least they’ll get some milfs. Manny?

I prefer the look of the Touran over any of the bakkie based SUV’s. Just saying
Flex is overrated

Time I reviewed it then...

ADVENTURE AFRIKA Magazine Issue 4
Convoy of white (what else) Hiluxes & the word Magic prominently displayed on the cover.

In their Social Media feedback they asked for opinions on the new Nissan Terra - here'smine: It's a Soft Roader.

What to look forward to in 2021: New Navara, Renault Oroch ? maybe, Land Cruiser 300, New Isuzu D-Max ? maybe, 7 seater Jeep Grand Cherokee ? maybe - check it out!

Gear & Gadgets: A few nice items - like Stanley Adventure Full Kitchen Base Camp Cook Set (damn long name!) & aTPMS they claim lets you inflate & deflate your tyre?

A Richtersveld article, trip by Bushwhacked (not affiliated to ...Bushwacker Chas... Dean...) the trip was done in hired Hiluxes from Bushlore.


a very good article on the Dakar - worth a read.

Kgalagadi with Ultimate Adventures.

A Reader article on the KNP.

A nice interesting article on Trailers: The Invader Quattro, & the AirOpus (as seen on 4WD24/7).
Anton's verdict? The invader is R320 000 & the Opus around R400 000, you'll need to read it to see what he chose.

An article on Mapping vs Chipping - I have not read it yet.

Then Cooking & Photography for those who enjoy those hobbies.


Trygve Roberts does the Franchoek Pass.

Areview ofthe Fleckvieh Guest Farm - looks stunning, but its all the way in the Western Cape.

A road test of the Duster vs the Fortuner - haven't read it, but the Fortuner is more than double the price of the Duster.

A test of the Merc GLS its more than double the price of the Fortuner (You could buy 5 Renault Duster's with the GLS money & have change)...

Ford took a group of Journo's to Limpopo & Mpumalanga late last year to try out the Rangers.
Dunno what the guys who believe Toyota only gets good write ups in Motoring Mags because they spend big money will make of this! :lol: :D :)

Anton writes a nice article on the most important camping accessory - a decent chair.

Some readers show their rides,

That's it. Quiet varied...

Let me know your views of Issue 4 guys...

I've read the cover of Issue #4. There are a few articles that interest me so they will get my attention first. As I get to read them I'll give feedback.
