We're going to S. Africa next week and a raincoat is mandatory. Will this be too heavy for temps ranging from 40-70 degrees? If so, which raincoat would you recommend? Is there one with a zip out lining that might be more versatile?

For that temperature range you will be in this jacket should work just fine. A quarter zip or lightweight fleece jacket layered underneath should keep you warm when it's on the colder side. As far as bang for your buck in a nice lightweight rain jacket this is a good way to go.
