This is possibly the end of the channel | Back in Namibia🇳🇦
Another day, another breakdown. This time it's quite serious, potentially a cracked cylinder head or blown head gasket. Nevertheless, Im heading back to Namibia for an engine overhaul and major vehicle upgrade if I can get sponsors to play along...

No Nic, this being the end of the channel isn't an option. Your videos and insight into all the places that you visit is too valuable. Im going to upgrade my Patreon membership. I hope other people subscribe, become patreons and assist in order to keep receiving this quality content. Keep it up mate!

Good luck with the repairs. Greetings from Holland. Best, Stefan Braam

[@NickfrNamibia]

Thanks so much Stefan😊

[@Nakamichi_Service_UK]

Best of luck with the rebuild Nick, Frank deserves it and you have many more countries to go. Hopefully the spares suppliers - which we all use, can support you. Hopefully local garages will supply labour and expertise in exchange for some positive exposure and a perpetual recommendation to your viewers - to visit them when we undertake our own Southern Africa adventures in the future. Your content is very useful and inspiring and long may it continue to be provided on 5410 Africa

Toyota doesnt do those types of sponsorship, not even for the biggest channels with the best production value, maybe try hollywood movies
