I seem to recall that Stefaansie's car is in the same series as mine. It has a VIN plate on the firewall that says "made in South Africa" but the VIN number does not follow Nissan's published system and Nissan SA does not have these numbers on their system. Somebody once told me they were built by McCarthy in Merc's factory. Not sure about the veracity of that. Either way, I have seen quite a number of these. Oom Mack's is one and Jule's old car is another. On these cars, the VIN starts with ADNC350000Y21. I am also convinced some of these were diesels.
If I remember correctly, Dirk's car is not a grey import (in the sense that a grey import is imported by a dealer to be sold), but was actually brought in by Grant's dad for his own use?
Strangely enough, Dirk's car's VIN number IS on Nissan SA's system.

That is the Patrol that a Cape member recently sold. He had been trying to sell it for a helluva long time, since quite soon after he got it actually. Eventually found a buyer but the new owner put it back on the market again almost immediately. Something peculiar going on with that car. I'd walk away from itFrancois Theron wrote: ↑20 Jul 2021 13:22 Such a pity it's LHD! I would have loved it!
