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 SARS.

The Mercury reports the auction of vehicles is linked to unpaid taxes.

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.

Among the collection is a 2022 Mercedes-Benz S680 Maybach Edition 100. This car still carries branding from Royal AM Football Club, the team Mkhize bought in 2021 and moved to KZN from Bloemfontein.

The auction also includes a 2020 Bentley Continental GTC. Another standout is the 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon with ONYX customisation. A 2022 BMW i7 xDrive 60 is also up for grabs. Other vehicles 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' efforts to recover over R37m in tax debt allegedly owed by Royal AM.
