Info in the "Getting Ready" section of this forum seems to be a bit out of date as the Carnet situation keeps changing.
At one stage it was possible for anyone to get carnets from ADAC Germany, but then they international organisation clamped down so you could only get a carnet from an issuer authorised for your country of registration. However, I thought(??) that had been again relaxed or even overturned by a court ruling, but I think ADAC got sick of the hassles and stopped issuing them for just anyone.
Dan Grec has posts on several forums tracing his progress around Africa without being forced into getting a carnet and expects to succeed except for maybe Europe. Trouble is you still need one to ship into South Africa.
Boomerang - http://www.atacarnet.com/ is your nominated issuer
