Our place, not too good, directly in the sun, but it was just for one night, as we will continue for the Sahara now!

Americans, so BIG TRUCK, ‘nough said

An Unimog truck, also way too big if you ask me.

Yeah, what to say about this? Higher as an average house! Just the biggest truck I’ve seen, 6 wheel drive MAN truck. Higher price than an average house too, must be around 250000/300000 dollars I guess, including living room, bathroom, and so on.

Old firearms Mercedes overland truck, 1/100 of the price of the MAN 6×6 overland truck I think.

We had to take some stony and sandy pistes. We finally arrived at Fort Bou Jerif, in fact this really was an Oasis! It is a great bastion which is really a recommendation, it’s in the middle of nowhere. We had some great dinner over there, it was good food which made this place really a perfect one. After dinner we sat outside below the starry sky, from this place you can see a massive amount of stars.

Their filosofy: If it’s able to drive, it’s not too much to carry on the roof.

W123 Taxi, Agadir, Morocco

W114 taxi, Agadir

Taxis in one of the duty-free, sandy villages in the western sahara. In various parts in Morocco they have their own color, as in other african countries. Here you see the often used white/blue combination and the sandy brown color, which is the same color as they were originally in Germany. Most of the time they use the 240d’s with manual gearbox.

On the Transatlantic route. Here you see the W123′s where 7 people are stuffed in the car, sharing the taxi costs to cross the sahara via the transatlantic road. Most of the time they use the 240d’s with manual gearbox.

W123, queen of the saharan highway

Very motivating with 40-something degrees celcius

Another queen of the sahara, all stations are Peugeots of the 504 type, and not the T-modell of the Mercedes W123 somehow.
