1997 the Land Rover Freelander was introduced. - The much rumoured CB40 project is revealed to the press as the Freelander. Designed to compete against small 4x4s such as the Honda CRV and Toyota RAV4, the Freelander departed from standard Land Rover design technologies, with a monocoque body and independent strut suspension. The Freelander quickly becomes Europe's best selling 4x4.

If ordering from overseas just simply fill in the attached request a quote form to check availability of a vehicle(s), and detail any extras you require with the/each vehicle, and finally the preferred shipping option, with details of where you require the vehicle(s) to be shipped to. On receipt of this our team will fax or e-mail a detailed no obligation quote and if you are happy with this let us know and we will fax or e-mail a pro-forma invoice back to you. This will detail the cost of the vehicle(s), any extras, shipping costs and payment details (payment on overseas orders are made by direct bank transfer). At this point the vehicle(s) will be reserved for 7 days while payment is received and processed. During this time we will arrange shipping and book the vehicle(s) in for any pre-sale servicing and pre-delivery inspection procedures.

Once payment is made in the case of UK orders, or we have confirmation of payment in the case of overseas orders the transportation or shipping bookings will be finalised and paid for by us, the vehicle(s) in question will then be serviced, pre-delivery inspected and have any extras which you have purchased fitted. For UK deliveries arranging their own shipping our transport section will contact you and arrange delivery by UK road of your vehicle(s) to the required address. For overseas customers a receipt of payment and delivery schedule will be e-mailed or faxed which will give details of shipping arrangements including collection from us, details of the shipping company and booking ref, their agent handling the shipping, also the estimated time and date of dispatch from the UK and arrival in Africa so it can be collected from the relevant port by you.

Your vehicle will be transported by car transporter to your address in the UK, if overseas to the UK ports of Tilbury for roll-on roll-off services or Felixstowe in the case of container shipping, where our agents will handle the UK export paperwork, and customs clearance, UK customs will then oversee the car been loaded onto the boat for departure to Africa. Boats leave the UK approximately every 10 days Once departed from UK shores they are at sea for just over 2 weeks before arrival to Africa, some ports in Africa take a little longer for delivery. With UK deliveries original documents will be dropped off with your vehicle(s) if not already given to you at the point of sale. For overseas sales copies of the UK vehicle documents and shipping documents will be faxed or e-mailed to you and the original vehicle documents and receipt of sale will be sent by worldwide courier service. These will be required so you can register the vehicle after being collected from the receiving port.

on resale they obtain the same or more than they originally paidA short while later your new car will have arrived and a vast and massive saving on your purchase  made - in many cases up to 50% on similar cars for sale in parts of Africa. Along separately with the car will be all of the documentation required to register the car, it will have been serviced and pre-delivery inspected. Following registration it will be ready for you to use and enjoy!!!


An interesting point to note, our research has showed now that many customers have found after 2/3 years of use, on resale they obtain the same or more than they originally paid for the vehicle, which effectively equated to free motoring!!!!
