Watching I Fish on TV tonight and spotted a bus body Oka in the background, can't remember the name of the place but it was 300k's north of Darwin. It was white with no markings on it that I could see, so probably a private one .

Maybe 300kms SOUTH>..... North we end up in the sea, unless its on an island.

300 KMS south would be around Katherine. Nobby has two there. Then I think there is one in Gove etc.

All good, I often make typo`s etc. Especially when I am tired.

I dont think there are a lot of OKA`s that reside permanently in the NT. Maybe 10 at the most.

Must be mating season for Okas???
I have seen 6 today... Drove my #187 to work early, relocated one of my work vehicles #430, was talking to the user of another LT, with WA plates, which was a colour some what between pink and grey {thought her name was Jane, and she had just driven up from Lawn Hill] So that was 3. On my way to Darwin, I passed another white LT, [not a bus, may have been #406], makes 4...Then I passed a red one, and on the return journey I passed #408. So 6 in one day..
So I hope the season goes well for them.. we need more of a good things...
Cheers,
Nobby.

Same Same, any one in Darwin area, feel free to contact me.

Spotted a number of Oka's over the last 9 weeks on our first long Oka trip.

#69 at Yulara and again 7 weeks later as we were coming back into perth we saw them leaving perth on Tonkin Hwy.
2 x NT's , tour company vehicles in Coober Pedy. plus the mail run vehicle.
#306? ( i think) visual and UHF, somewhere Townsville-Cairns from memory
Chris & Helen waved us down and had a chin wag for a while somewhere near Fitzroy Crossing
coming into Karajini, passed one going out. Much waving on both vehicles.
Another tour vehicle parked at Exmouth.

counting #69 twice that averages to one Oka sighting per week

In Broome, having a chat outside the PO with friends when this OKA pulled up next to us.
They aren't on the forum yet, but are gunnas.
Had a lovely chat with Darryl and Liz.
Another bespoke rig I think it is OKA 335.?

I like the look of the box on the back.
In Bibra lakes I think it was Rainer's that Dean had some camper/box where the ute tray goes.

Both are making more sense to as time goes on...

Visited OKA all terrain vehicles last Friday and was nice to see people being receptive and optimistic about the brand, one "R" series nearly done with Cummins/Allison/Nissan Patrol transfer case and another "R" series just starting the way to a new life with the drive train stripped cleaned sand blasted and epoxy primed and top coated far more care and detail than the original OKA
