    bak = is also the popular "street" name for a car here.. hence bakkie (lil bak) is just the cute name for the cars over there as well i guess..

    combi (or kombi in suid afrikaans) is usually how we call the vans or "stationwagons"(?)..

    so it's all obvious..

    ohhh, ok. that clears things up then. Good to know. Although, I'm afraid most whities in Africa don't care about their Dutch (Flemish) heritage as much as they should.
