My DH and I need to rent a 4x4 (with low range) with a roof top tent. We are based in Cape Town, so will pick the vehicle up and drop it off there. Any suggestions? Any input regarding Kea? Bushlore? Britz? Drive Africa? Maui?

Have you tried asking people in one of the SA 4x4 club websites?
Here is a 4x4 rental that has some info on roof tents: http://www.offroadafrica.com/
At least one with tent here:

Thanks for the suggestions. Off Road Africa appears to be a broker, and I would sooner deal with a company directly.
I have looked at Drive South Africa, but found some really scathing reviews about the condition of their vehicles, so decided against them.
I have scanned the 4x4 forums, and wasn't able to find anything about renting a 4x4 with a tent, but I did not try posting. I will give it a try. Thanks for the input! CR
