MaMkhize's luxury car collection to go under the hammer as Sars clamps down
Shauwn Mkhize whose assets, including fleet of cars, were confiscated by Sars during the raid earlier last week. South African businesswoman and reality TV star Shauwn 'MaMkhize' Mkhize is once again making headlines — this time over her flashy car collection, which is going up for auction next week as part of an ongoing legal battle with the South African Revenue Service. The vehicles, which include some of the world's most luxurious brands, are linked to unpaid taxes owed by her football club, Royal AM. A total of 13 high-end vehicles and a tour bus will be sold online through Bidders Choice. The auction will be open from 27 June until 2 July, giving car lovers and collectors a chance to bid on some truly rare finds. Anyone interested in placing a bid must first register and pay a R50 000 refundable registration fee. The cars can be viewed in person in Johannesburg or KwaZulu-Natal before the auction begins. Among the collection is a 2022 Mercedes-Benz S680 Maybach Edition 100, a vehicle so rare that only 100 units were produced globally. Similar models have been known to fetch upwards of R5 million at international auctions. This specific car still carries branding from Royal AM Football Club, the team Mkhize bought in 2021 and moved to KwaZulu-Natal from Bloemfontein, when it was still known as Bloemfontein Celtics. The auction also includes a 2020 Bentley Continental GTC, a car that easily commands a price tag of around R4 million. Another standout is the 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen with ONYX customisation, a model that could sell for more than R2 million depending on its condition. A 2022 BMW i7 xDrive 60, one of the latest electric sedans from BMW, is also up for grabs and typically sells for nearly R3 million. Other vehicles in the line-up include a 2018 Mercedes-Benz V-Class Maybach Bus, several BMWs, two Toyota Hilux bakkies, a Nissan NP300, and a Volkswagen Crafter. The luxury tour bus, a 2014 Mercedes-Benz Marcopolo G7, is also part of the sale. The vehicles are being auctioned as part of Sars's efforts to recover over R37 million in tax debt allegedly owed by Royal AM. The club was placed under curatorship last year, and the auction is one of the steps being taken to settle the outstanding tax liabilities. This comes just months after a failed deal to sell Royal AM to an investment company. According to court-appointed curator Jaco Venter, Global Investments was selected as the successful bidder earlier this year, but the agreement fell through when the company missed the payment deadline. Mkhize has not commented publicly on the auction, but Sars has made it clear that the move is part of a broader effort to clamp down on high-profile taxpayers who do not comply with the law. For now, the spotlight remains firmly on MaMkhize, whose once-celebrated lifestyle is being picked apart piece by piece.
