We have 3 locally made fridges. One is Campmaster which is Stainless Steel Box with some fancy compressor, the other is Kellerman which is the same idea and the other is Snowmaster which is mostly freezer with little fridge compartment. They are all in the R4 500 range for a 40l ish.
We have National Luna (Not sure where its made) which is 40% more expensive than anything else.
My experience: I have a 60l Engel Combi (40l fridge, 20l Freezer) because it has a 3 year guarantee, it is efficient on power and has a great name for being a great product. 40l Engel will cost you R6 000 at the moment.
So seriously... for an extra R1 500, which is less than what it costs me to fill my longranger tank, I would go Engel and sleep better at night.
Just so you know: BFG Muds are not availible in SA at the moment. Michellin's standard answer is 6 to 8 weeks and has been for about 3 months now. All Terrains are freely availible, but I am not convinced of their efficiency in Africa.... A 265 75 16 (Standard size for Land Cruiser 80) of eiher will cost around R1900 per tyre. Dunlop's Cooper STT's which is also a mud tyre is pretty much the same price and is availible. http://twt.co.za/live/index.php is a franchise dealer for tyres you'll find all around the country if you want to ask questions.
