40th anniversary photos - (part 25) going on safari.......in the Netherlands

Saving the best till last, well actually there's a lot more photos from the car park outside yet to come, but this beautiful Safari model was the last one I saw inside the museum. This special edition of the R4 was manufactured around the mid 1970's, and like the later Jogging model, is now highly desirable. There were 2 Safari editions of the same colour that attended the event - you can see the other one pictured by the windmill during the Saturday tour earlier on in this section.

As you can see the interior was quite stunning, with starkly different seat styling. The seats themselves were much thinner than the standard type, but had a luxurious padded base. Of all the R4's I have seen I think this has become my favourite, and I'm very jealous of the owner!
