Namibia's content-driven motoring portal
Dit is vanjaar sestig jaar wat koningin Elizabeth ll as Britse vorstin regeer en ons het al heelwat oor hierdie mylpaal te hore en te siene gekry; vanaf BBC televisie tot stories in Die Huisgenoot met foto’s oor hierdie merkwaardige vrou en natuurlik ook die troonopvolgers met hulle huwelike, hoogtepunte en laagtepunte.
This was the caption of an advertisement in the British magazine, The Motor, in May 1962; fifty years ago.
The reason for this jubilation was that Peugeot – again – won the East African Safari. And they did have reason to be over the moon since they finished 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th in the 1600-2000 cc class in one of the most gruelling endurance rallies at the time. The winning 404 was driven by local driver, the Kenyan Nick Nowicki with Paddy Cliff as his co-driver.
