Earning Your Trust, One Kilometre at a Time: A Look Back at Our Award-Winning 2025 Journey
Built on trust, transparency, and a customer-first approach, Auto Investments Motor Group has grown into one of South Africa’s largest independently owned motor groups, offering an exceptional vehicle purchasing experience.
More than 30 years ago, Auto Investments started as a single pre-owned dealership. Today, we are a nationwide network with a growing mix of specialized pre-owned dealerships and authorized mainline brand dealerships for leading global manufacturers.
As we reflect on 2025, we are incredibly proud of the awards and accolades earned across our network. Not because trophies are the goal, but because recognition like this is the natural outcome of doing the basics properly, consistently and transparently.
What These Awards Really Reflect
In the motor industry, awards usually come down to a few non-negotiables:
- Human Connections: Experiences that feel personal, not transactional.
- Operational Discipline: Doing the small things properly, every single day.
- Protective Leadership: Leaders who set the standard and guard our brand promise.
- Unshifting Quality: A commitment to transparency that never wavers.
When partners, automotive brands, and industry bodies recognize our performance, it is rarely for one big moment. It is for hundreds of consistent, correct decisions made over time.

Emma’s recognition reflects the leadership, integrity, and consistent impact she brings to the backbone of the Auto Investments Motor Group.
A Sincere Thank You
None of these wins happen without the people behind the scenes—from our dedicated sales, finance, admin, after-sales, and support teams to our valued business partners who help us keep everything moving across our nationwide network.
Most importantly, none of it happens without you, our customers. Your trust is the biggest accolade we can earn, and we never take it for granted.
Looking Ahead to 2026
As we step into the new year, our focus remains unchanged: offering peace of mind through properly inspected vehicles, transparent guidance, and an experience you’ll feel confident recommending.
