Thanks Gents for the kind comments....
so onwards and upwards towards the Metropolitan...
Left Estcourt and joined the N3, 40 odd kms on the N3 i pulled into Shell Ultra City to top up the LRP before the long trip aheah into Johannesburg.
Soon after leaving the Ultra city and as the air got thinner due to altitude, the carb (yes Nissan 1400) was getting starved... so pulled over into the emergency lane...fiddled around with the mixture and off we went.
Next stop Engen 1 stop Wilge... just to give the car a rest before the cruise up ahead.
Next stop was lunch in Alberton.....Buup Buuuuup from Wilge Engen on towards De Hoek Toll Plaza and on the way to Denton Road Alberton for a well deserved lunch...arriving at 13:00
After lunch was the last leg of the trip on to Pretoria
Arrived in Pretoria around 2:30 and by now i was super ecstatic
and this is the Map of the road travelled.
now that my other half was with me after 2 long years......i only had 1 thing on my mind.....parts.....parts.....parts....
But First.... i was on the lookout for mini correct mags....and in July i found my set of Mistrals in Springs for R 2500.00 including tyres.
