My car wont make it, what happens now?

Well that is up to you.  If you have taken it into a country that requires a carnet than you may be losing the money put up as insurance.  If you can sell the car to a mechanic it is up to you to fill out the appropriate paperwork.  Nomadic Nation is not and can not be held responsible for any fines or fees that come with leaving a vehicle in a foreign country.  We urge you to still make it through whatever means necessary to South Africa and the arrival party in Cape Town.
