Scenario:
Shane wants to purchase a limited-edition Porsche motor vehicle recently released in Germany. He visits the local
Porsche dealership in Johannesburg. The dealership owner informs Shane that there is a twelve-month waiting
period to receive the limited-edition Porsche model, due to its manufacture and assembly in Germany, after which
it will be sent to the Johannesburg dealership. Shane signed the ‘Contract of Sale’ document presented by the
dealership, which included standard terms and conditions, stipulating a purchase price of R2 million. The contract
required Shane to pay the full purchase price to the seller (‘Porsche Johannesburg’) within 30 days of signing the
agreement, which he timely did after being requested by the dealership manager.

Scenario:
Shane wants to purchase a limited-edition Porsche motor vehicle recently released in
Germany. He visits the local Porsche dealership in Johannesburg. The dealership owner
informs Shane that there is a twelve-month waiting period to receive the limited-edition
Porsche model, due to its manufacture and assembly in Germany, after which it will be
sent to the Johannesburg dealership.
Shane signed the ‘Contract of Sale’ document presented by the dealership, which
included standard terms and conditions, stipulating a purchase price of R2 million. The
contract required Shane to pay the full purchase price to the seller (‘Porsche
Johannesburg’) within 30 days of signing the agreement, which he timely did after being
requested by the dealership manager.
Eight months after signing, the manager informed Shane that he needed to specify any
extras he wanted included in the car and to pay for them. Shane requested a sunroof,
paying an additional R50 000. He was then informed that he should expect delivery in a
few months.
When the car arrived in Johannesburg, excitement ensued as only five cars of this
model were manufactured globally, and offers were made exceeding double Shane’s
purchase price. The dealership owner considered selling the car at a higher price. Upon
legal review, it was discovered that although Shane signed the Contract of Sale, the
seller’s authorised representative did not sign the document, even though the
document provided for such signature. The representative admitted this oversight. Shane
had assumed all relevant parties had signed.
