Motor Feature: Tshegofatso Mabasa
Buccaneers centre forward Tshegofatso Mabasa has been on fire this season, bagging 10 league goals for both Swallows and his parent club.
Mabasa's goals for Pirates and Swallows in the first half of the season see him sit second on the Top Scorer's chart, one behind Mamelodi Sundowns' Brazilian forward, Lucas Ribeiro Costa.
Off the pitch, the target man has a lethal vehicle to match his ruthlessness in front of goal, a black BMW X3 M Sport which he reportedly purchased in 2021.
The X3 isn't the only BMW ride Mabasa has been seen with. He also reportedly owns BMW M235i and a BMW 118i.
