This machine is a bit of a monster, and exactly what is needed for Namibian conditions.

Toyota made this FJ80 in 1996, and it has been taken good care of since. The carburetor was changed out for fuel injection, chassis was lifted 4 inches and bigger wheels fitted. Performance of this vehicle is quite impressive, even though it’s very quiet for a tour vehicle.

On the inside we have a small on-the-road fridge between the front seats, and a larger National Luna Weekender twin fridge in the back for longer trips. Together with the Aircon and a nice sound system it makes the longer journeys enjoyable.

We have a long distance two way radio installed for emergencies, as well as a medical grab kit, toolbox and recovery gear loaded on every trip.
