Love your kalahari Cool not heard of one of those before! It does remind me of SA when I came over a good few years back, white with large front bars and rack seems popular there. not many like that here in uk. Amazing country Thumbs Up

South Africa only and only about 200 made. Came standard with bull bar and checkered plate on fenders and sills.

The go for premium if looked after, mine was about 3 times what a pre '99 300Tdi would go for.

Thanks. I most probably never be able to buy a good one again, so I'm trying to look after her.

When we decided to replace the'84 V8 Hardtop, I studied the TD5, Puma and the Tdi.

Tdi's where getting old here as we last saw them in '99.
I wasn't fond of the electronic stuff in the Td5 and the Puma was worse.
I had to be able to help myself in the middle of nowhere.

Luckily I came across the Kalahari's. Didn't even know they existed.

Only made in '06 and the one I bought had 119K km on the odo and very well looked after.

Good choice I think, especially important in SA I guess at times to be able fix stuff and keep going without electronics. It could be a life saver depending where you are venturing.
I have a TD5 now which is great (first Defender was 300tdi) but yes the tdi was the last of non electronic ones, a good one is certainly worth keeping especially with the AC and that spec and condition, my one wasn't quite as nice!
