Aircooled VW South Africa

Picked up a copy of Leisure wheels and by chance there is another 3 page article about a 10 day trip to the Richtersveld, Sossusvlei and Kolmanskop. I'll scan it when I'm back home if anyone is interested.

ASB Beetlefanatic.
That sounds like an awesome trip to do in a well sorted split

KK, I thought you don't do camping......
We would love to have you and the seatcover there.....

I dont do camping, already checked, most of the stops on the route have chalets

BTW if anyone wants nice pics of Sossusvlei we have lotz of the bush camp and the lodge we stayed there on our 34 day trip from south - north and back will post up pics if anyone wants

I'm going to try to make it. It all depends on the work.

It seems like the World Cup is 11 June to 11 July - I think it is the perfect time to GET WAY from civilisation...

GRRRRRR!!!!!!!!

After today,I couldn't agree more.

Ok guys

I'm working on a route starting 21 June 2010 till 26/27 June 2010. There are still campsites available but I need to know who is keen as we will have to book now. Some sites only have 3 or 4 sites left and they tend to go first. Those keen to join, please let me know by Friday. I can then plan and book our trip and should have everything ready by Monday/Tuesday.

Oh, before I forget...this from their site."The park is only accessible by means of a 4x4 vehicle, but vehicles with high clearances such as Kombi’s and LDV’s do travel in the park. Sedan vehicles are not permitted. There is no specific route that can be booked in advance."

Oh man. Guess that a lowered Fastback or stock Karmann Ghia don't qualify then

Well, what about your Oval Baja

The old lady is still trying to find the original bill of sale and Hazet toolbox, then the Baja Build can start

As discussed earlier, count me in - I might perhaps only join you guys a day later, since I don't want to miss the Beetle 75th here in Midrand - but I WILL be there!

According to the calendar, the days are as follows:

20 Sunday
21 Monday
22 Tuesday
23 Wednesday
24 Thursday
25 Friday
26 Saturday
27 Sunday

...of course we absolutely MUST have a Tour logo - for the car doors, stickers, T-shirts, beer mugs etc

I thought of something simple, like this?
