Great shots, stay safe.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Great sunset, and the Redcliffs look stunning also.

OOh! Nostalgia mode on!
I lived in Wentworth a lifetime ago. A mate and I made sand-boards and went out to those dunes. We ate a lot of dirt, and didn't do it ever again. You cannot surf down a sand dune.

I was on a bus that broke down in Renmark once in the middle of summer. It was 49° and very unpleasant.
I'm envious of your trip!

Re: billybunters - from a bmw z4 to a mx5 se
renmark sa to peterborough.
knew it wasn't going to be good driving when I saw this cloud formation - cumulus erectus
half hour later rain
once at the motel in Peterborough we set off another 50 klm to Orroroo to see this huge 500 year old river gum tree
followed by a 10 klm drive along this bloody stony road
which got us here
after following the instructions - turn off the motor -place in neutral -foot off the brake - the car actually runs uphill!
looking in front of the car =downhill!

That hill is fun. An optical illusion though. It's nothing magnetic as I poured a bottle of water on the road and it flowed 'uphill' as well.

Thanks for the lovely images of Sturts desert pea. Sad that people still think that is clever to scroll spray can sh*t all over stuff!
