Hmm, I thought I'd also posted a comment to that effect yesterday. Seems like a good deal for someone in SA. Looked for interior pictures on Gumtree but it seems the ad isn't up there anymore.

I PM'd him requesting interior shots etc. but nothing back so far.
Was thinking it would make a nice trip to fly in and pick it up and then drive up and surprise my wife in Tanzania with it.
Of course I may need it to sleep in after she sees it??!!:)
