One badge. One clue. 👀

Can you guess the car?

A close-up is all you’re getting but for the true petrolheads, that unmistakable AC badge might already be enough to narrow it down.

Cape 1000 has always been about bringing together extraordinary machinery from across the automotive spectrum, timeless classics, rare icons, modern performance cars and machines you simply don’t see every day.

And this one? It definitely belongs in that company.

Look closely at the details… what AC do you think this is?

Drop your guess below. 👇

A proper Cape 1000 grid, different eras, different philosophies, one shared obsession with exceptional cars.

From modern performance machinery to timeless grand tourers and rare classics, the lineup is part of what makes Cape 1000 unlike anything else. Every car arrives with its own character, its own story and its own reason for being here.

Parked together, they’re impressive.

Out on the open road, they become something else entirely.

This is Cape 1000. Where the lineup is only the beginning.

Which car are you taking the keys to first?

Three cars. Three personalities. One road ahead. 🇿🇦

Ferrari. Lamborghini. BMW M.

Different engineering philosophies. Different driving experiences. One shared purpose, to be driven.

That’s what makes the Cape 1000 different.

It’s not simply about bringing exceptional cars together. It’s about experiencing them the way they were intended: across 1,000 miles of spectacular Western Cape roads, from flowing coastal routes and mountain passes to the open stretches that make South Africa such an extraordinary place to drive.

The 2026 Cape 1000 brought together around 70 remarkable cars across classic, modern classic, sports and special categories, celebrating everything from automotive heritage to modern supercar performance.

And sometimes, the hardest part is choosing which set of keys you’d take.

FERRARI FRIDAY

From timeless classics to modern Maranello machinery, few things look quite as good against the roads and mountain passes of the Cape.

Different generations. Different personalities. One unmistakable badge.

That’s part of the magic of The Cape 1000 where automotive history meets the open road, and cars built decades apart get to do what they were always meant to do: drive.

Swipe through a little Ferrari Friday appreciation from the Cape 1000. 🇿🇦

Which Ferrari are you taking to take on South Africa’s Most Beautiful Drive?

Some backdrops simply can’t be replicated. 🇿🇦

Timeless classics, open-top sports cars and grand tourers gathered in one of the most spectacular automotive settings in South Africa.

Because Cape 1000 has never been only about the cars. It’s about the roads, the landscapes, the people and the shared passion for driving that turn every kilometre into part of the story.

And when Table Mountain appears on the horizon, you know you’re somewhere special.

Some roads are measured in kilometres. Others are measured in generations.

From the unmistakable silhouettes of motoring’s golden years to the precision and performance of the modern era, Cape 1000 brings them together on the same road.

Classic Porsche. Timeless Mercedes-Benz. Modern Ferrari. Different decades, different philosophies united by one thing: a love of exceptional cars and the journey they were built to make.

Because great motoring has never belonged to just one era.

It’s the mechanical soundtrack.
The stories behind every steering wheel.
The design that stops you mid-stride.
And the open road waiting beyond the next corner.

Classic or modern, which keys are you reaching for first?
