Ireland to Capetown 2019. Mercedes 1988 814 7.5 tonne
Hello All.
Planning a trip next year from Dublin Ireland to Tankwa national park just above Cape town.
We will be running a converted Mercedes 814, 6 liter horsebox pulling a 4 meter trailer loaded with sound and stage equipment.
It has been 15 or 16 years since going on a trip of this magnitude.
So their are some things I feel this would be the best place to ask about.
What would anyone with experience be considered the best route?
Stick to the coast of go in land at some points?
Also visa and borders situations.
Are there problematic borders visa costs.
Carnett de passage for vehicle, is this required and for where.
One thing which I am not sure if it is on the forum somewhere already is the fuel costs for diesel in the different countries on the way down.
I think thats a decent start to my questions I hope some of you can take the time to share your knowledge with me on.
Thanks in advance
BTP
