“Globally, SUVs are selling like hotcakes,” he said. This is the one sector of the motor industry that is truly on fire. We are seeing exactly the same happening in the auction arena here in South Africa. SUVs are highly sought-after and, assuming they’re in good condition, they are being snapped up on auction.”
