Not mine...no affiliation. But if someone is looking for a reliable vehicle already in Africa for less than $10K, this seems like a good option:

History:
We bought the vehicle in Cape Town in March and driven to Dar es Salaam, putting 10,000km on the clock. Previous owner of 7 years was an Afrikaaner 4x4 enthusiast looking to upgrade. He racked up the mileage within SA on business, but every mechanic we've seen agrees it could easily do the same again. It's a strong, reliable car with a lot of life still in it.
Roadworthiness:
The car is in excellent condition, both engine and body, and comes with full service history. It was serviced and roadworthy-certified in Cape Town and Toyota-serviced in Blantyre, where new lower ball joints and brake pads were fitted and wheels aligned.

We are currently living in Zanzibar, but serious viewings can be arranged in Dar for a sale in mid-August
