Good to see international motoring aficionados coming here and filming, definitely puts us on the international spotlight..

But I feel like criticising..

Desert? what desert? he wasn't even near

9000ft? Hottentots Holland Mountain range's highest point is only 5220ft/1590m

Sentinel Point, Hout Bay is where the two ocean's meet and the southernmost tip of the African continent hmmm...

Maybe because of the lack of time they had, but there's definitely waaay more great driving roads in the Western Cape:

Glaring discrepancies aside, that sunset was simply stunning.

besides the rather stretchy version of geographical fact it was a very nice video... now all we need is for immigration to allow tourists to actually visit:argh:
