Buy Back Revolutionises Car Rental in South Africa

Aside from the business traveller there are those lucky and select few that get to spend their lives chasing an endless summer, no this is not some pipe dream. Cape Town is filled with Europeans who spend six months in their home land over summer an then six months in the southern hemisphere. They are not only the super wealthy either it just so happens that the South African economy allows them to. For this reason owning a car to keep in storage 6 months of the year is not a reasonable option. There is now a revolutionary concept conceived by forward thinking car rental agency Drive Africa, called rental buy back. The system allows you buy a car for an extended period with the guarantee that Drive Africa will buy it back from you. The buy-back price is set before you purchase the car depending on the make and model of the car. Terms and conditions obviously apply to the condition in which you bring the car back in. The benefits though are obvious, you have your own reliable, clean car to use for the duration of your stay and you know how much you will be out of pocket at the end of your stay. You can do the maths quite simply yourself. If the Write Down price – this refers to the price difference between the purchase price of the car and the buy-back price of the car – is less than the price of a rental car for the period that you will be staying then the choice is obvious.

Buy-back has also proved useful for those that are between cars, or have perhaps sold their own car and are still waiting to find the right deal on the car they want in these circumstances the cost of an indefinite rental car would be ludicrous especially if one is waiting to buy a car.
