Mr Siyamthanda Ngalo purchased a Range Rover last week for R980 500 (VAT incl).

While driving along the N8 Road from Kimberley to Campbell, he collides with Ms

Lerato Mopedi who is the owner-driver of a Porshe Cayenne. Ngalo is 21% negligent,

whereas Mopedi is 30% negligent. The damage to the Range Rover is estimated at

R125 000.00. It is uneconomical to repair the Porsche, but its salvage value is R120

000.00. The pre-accident value of the Porsche was R985 000.00.

With reference to the damages to Mr Ngalo and Ms Mopedi’s motor vehicles, calculate

who must pay whom, and what would be the amount in damages.
