Those interested in buying the vehicles must pay a R50 000 registration fee, and can view the cars in person in Johannesburg and KwaZulu-Natal.
A total of 13 cars and a tour bus linked to the controversial businesswoman Shauwn “MaMkhize” Mkhize are set to be auctioned online next week.
Bids for the 14 vehicles are welcome from 27 June to 2 July 2025.
Some of the cars set to be auctioned, including the tour bus, still have Royal AM Football Club’s branding on the sides. The soccer club, formerly known as Bloemfontein Celtics, was bought by Mkhize in 2021 and moved to KwaZulu-Natal.

Cars to be auctioned
According to Bidders Choice’s website, the vehicles will be auctioned after the South African Revenue Services’ (Sars) case against Royal AM Football Club.
The soccer club was placed under curatorship by the taxman to recover money owed by Mkhize. She reportedly owes Sars at least R37 million in tax debt.

Soccer club back on the market
Earlier this year, the Royal AM Football Club returned to the market after a deal between Chockalingam Moodley of Global Investments and Sars fell through.
According to a media statement from Sars curator Jaco Venter, Global Investments was notified on 19 March of their successful bid to acquire the status of Royal AM and was asked to pay within three days of notification, but the deal collapsed due to non-payment.
“The purpose of this communication is to notify interested parties of the outcome concerning the intended sale or auction of the Royal AM Football Club,” read the curator’s statement.
