The Mustang
A 2016 V8 GT right hand drive convertible S550 Mustang. Fully licenced to carry three adult sized passengers plus our driver in comfort with leather bucket seats, top up or down, and your choice of music playing on the stereo.
Ford Performance Racing Products Stage 2 kit with upgraded induction, exhaust and dyno tune. 385kW (306kW factory) and 620 NM (530 NM factory) that’s 515 hp and 457 ft lbs in the old measure. That gets us up to highway speed with ease. With independent rear suspension and all the modern traction and brake assists the vehicle is safe and fun, and will put a smile on the face of any closet petrol head.
Toyota Highlander SUV
We have our beautiful Toyota Highlander SUV to take you on safari. Being 4WD it is in its element when we hit the rural gravel roads on your tour. You have a high seating position giving an excellent view and with multi zone air-conditioning available you will be cool and comfortable. Sit back, relax and enjoy the sights.
It is a 2015 GLX model that translates to 4WD, 4-door, leather interior and backroad comfort. There are two booster half seats available for our smaller trekkers.
Like the Mustang Rides, all of our SUV tours include your driver/guide so book a private SUV tour today.
