Welcome to Mud, your new home! 
PS. You've got a great Troopy! With all respect, a Brit in Africa without a Land Rover (ex-LR90 V8 owner asking)?

May sound like sacrilege, but I would not recommend anyone except a rich masochist to buy a LandRover! Speaking from experience as I’ve owned a Series III, a 110, a Disco II and a P38 RangeRover! Put it down to the triumph of hope over experience!Welcome to Mud, your new home!

To be honest they were all cheap! The only time I spent decent money on a vehicle has been Toyota!
Lived in Nairobi for 20 years. Cruisers are what we drove to the bush to see the wild game. Nothing else. You have the right rig! Awesome. My boys are older and it would be nice to have them visit where I grew up.
