First-generation Ford Bantam (facelift) The first-generation Bantam was introduced in South Africa in 1983. It was intended to compete for market share that was, at the time, almost entirely monopolised by Nissan's B140 1400 Bakkie (which had been derived from the B110 sedan), with the remainder accounted for by the recently released Volkswagen Caddy.
Some vehicles used by South African Police are mostly pick up trucks or " bakkies" as it is called in Afrikaans with a detaining canopy installed to transport suspects in to the police station. Different sections/units or departments make use of normal police cars for different tasks. Other vehicles used are what is known as the Nyala.
