Synopsis

This guide to four-wheel driving in the Southern Africa region is aimed at all 4x4 drivers, novice or experienced. The book is geared specifically towards the use of a four-wheel drive on the subcontinent, a region that has an extremely varied topography, from rugged mountainous areas to dense woodlands and uneven plains. It is a region that is ideally suited for the 4x4 driver, from the professional - the game rangers and the farmers - to the outdoor explorer. The facts and figures are thoroughly researched. This information is comprehensive, giving the four-wheel drive motorist all the down-to-earth facts and tips he will need: selecting and buying a four-wheel drive, second-hand or new; vehicle auxiliary equipment; how to drive, maintain, equip, repair and get the most enjoyment from a 4x4; where to go on the subcontinent, from 4x4 trails to foreign climes, and what restrictions may apply; the 4x4 safari and vehicle recovery; and tips on navigation, health and conservation. Vehicle specificiations are also described, listed and individually illustrated, and a brief history of the four-wheel drive is outlined.
