note on NISSAN SITE:: Klub Management _ pse advise on "deposit" issue [seeing Club se base kom nie meer annerkant by Nissan plaas nie

OK, I went to the site and here it is as at September 2011

Day Entry (**)
Adults < 60 years R80 per person per day
Adults (Pensioners): 60+ years R60 per person per day
Children under 1.2 meters R40 per child per day

I also see they require a R100 deposit refundable if all the rules were adhered to through the drive. Is that also applicable to us, or has the club been able to get around that?

Oom Mac,

Why must the club cover this. It clearly states that it is for each vehicle. If you behave you get your money back. Not a bad idea.




Rates




The cost for the 4 x 4 self drive permit is R50 / vehicle/ day. Gate entry fees are payable in ADDITION to permit fees.

A R100 deposit/vehicle is required and refundable at the day's end, if all rules have been adhered to.

OUCH....eina!!

I do see that Herrie responded on page 1 of the Nissan4x4 site... but they asked if myself and Christo to do the arrangements for this one....... so I suppose I am the poepol .... as I was entrusted to have all the info .....

I will find out.... and post on the Nissan site too

[ricster]

I tried to contact Bass Lake .... but seems that the right people to discuss this with are not there, and will only be available tomorrow.....

So.... please remember that there is a R 100 REFUNDABLE deposit per vehicle, which you will each get back subject to adherence of course/track rules and regulations.

sooooooo -- where are the RULES ???

dis net ' Transvaler se kop wat so kan werkkk - en WIE is beoordelaar oor watter 'rule' gebreek is of nie??

[Grant]

At least all the money is made in the Transvaal.


Rules are rules. If you do not like them don't go. Simple as that.

I contacted the owner of bass lake..... had to search back into my diving history to find his number..... They have a general rule. You pay R 100 refundable deposit per vehicle. The reason for this is that some other groups in the past, have decided that they are going to re arrange obstacles and/or drive off the tracks where they shouldn't drive. They are also VERY strict on alcohol abuse or use on or before driving the track. If you break these rules you will NOT get your deposit back. Personally I think this is a brilliant idea, and am surprised that it is not more than R100 !!!

I know that we.... the Nissan Club.... are very aware of our public image..... which I believe is very good. We stick to the rules !!... and we have loads of fun and games. The rules are there to protect us, and the environment.

So please bring R 100 extra for the refundable deposit.

Cedric, you'll definitely forfeit your deposit if you drive straight through stop streets!

I suggest stopping, awaiting your turn, then only continuing straight on...
