I've got the book: "Africar the development of a car for Africa". They build 3 different types. Saw them in a museum in the UK in the nineties. http://eandt.theiet.org/magazine/2013/05/images/640_africar-book.jpg

On the BBC News this evening.
Gordon Murray says the Ox has given him more of a thrill than designing the McLaren.
I can understand that.

Yes, I've got that book too. I loved the TV series. A fascinating chap with some great ideas.

I never understood quite why the Africar never took off with 2CV6 mechanicals it seemed a logical choice as a world car.
The TV program series was highly watchable.
