VWOur speciality

Jaco Louw Senior has been a known name in the Port Elizabeth motor trade since 1995, with years at Auto Pedigree, Peugeot Port Elizabeth and the Kelston Motor Group before he went out on his own.

In 2020 his son, Jaco Junior, joined him and Jaco Louw Motors was born: a small, family-run dealership built on old school values. We know our cars, we know our customers by name, and we would rather point you to the right car than sell you the quick one.

“Built on old school values, a scarce commodity these days.”

Twenty-plus years in the trade

Jaco Senior started in the Port Elizabeth motor trade in 1995. Auto Pedigree, Peugeot Port Elizabeth and the Kelston Motor Group came before he went out on his own in 2014.

SA Car Prospector

A small wholesale business that also sold cars on behalf of private sellers. Built on old school values, it earned long-standing relationships with private buyers and businesses alike.

2020

Jaco Junior joins

Covid arrived, and Jaco Junior, a qualified electrical engineer with key-account experience in motor manufacturing, was retrenched at the end of March 2020. He joined his father with a fresh eye for how people shop for cars today, and Jaco Louw Motors was born.

From wholesale to a floor of our own

The plan was to grow the wholesale side. The Covid stock shortage changed that quickly, so we became a retail dealership. We focus on immaculate late-model VWs: accident-free, low mileage, still under factory warranty, with guaranteed ownership.
