Dear René

This serves to inform you that the 4x4 training on Saturday went fabulous. It was great fun and learned a lot about our vehicles. Mr Naude was outstanding I must say. I've recommended the training to my friends.

Thank you,

Aan Safari, René en Ben

My man Cliff, het op Saterdag, 3 November 2012 sy opleiding ontvang en ek was saam as passasier. Dit was absoluut uitstend! Ben is baie ervare en het baie goeie kennis, wat hy net so goed oordra. Baie dankie, Ben, vir 'n wonderlike ervaring en dag!

Groete
Cliff en Marthie

 
 

 
 

Hi René

Just a quick note to say thank you for the beginner course which we attended 2/6/2012 – as before Ben’s a great instructor and my wife feels much more confident in using our Jeep off-road.

And a big thank you for the hearty delicious lunch.

Kind regards

Hi René

Thank you for a great day's training on Saturday 10/3/2012 with Ben Naude. Both Rob and I thoroughly enjoyed the theory and practical lessons and learnt valuable lessons about our vehicles in a safe environment.  

We look forward to coming again with some other drivers/vehicles in the near future.

Kind regards

Eugene

 
 

 
 

Good day;

I want to thank Horts Kellerman for his assistance.
I was there a day or two ago with my 2006 Nissan Hardbody that I just acquired.
I was actually just having a browse, as I am new to having a bakkie and camping for that matter. (My wife, three children and I have just recently started doing some camping).

I asked him about the power systems and explained that I have a VERY tight budget at the moment and that I probably wouldn’t be buying anything for a while still.

Despite the fact that I made it clear that I could not make any purchases, Horst kindly explained the different battery systems (Dual/Portable/etc) to me and even suggested he test the current battery in my vehicle, to give me an even more accurate “suggestion” as to what system would suit my needs and my budget.

I don’t know if this seems trivial or not, but I always figure that if a person can be quick to complain about poor service, you should also be quick to compliment good service.

Kind regards

Hi René

Net 'n kort nota om dankie te sê vir die opleiding Saterdag. Ek en Louis het dit verskriklik baie geniet en geweldig baie geleer ten opsigte van die meganika van viertrek voertuie en die hantering van my voertuig op die hindernisroete. Ben het die indrukwekkende vermoë om sy kennis op 'n professionele manier oor te dra en elke bestuurder op sy gemak te laat voel.

Weereens baie dankie.

Groete

November Opleiding

Ons het `n baie lekker dag gehad en het baie geleer, veral wat die teorie betref. Die tegniese opleiding oor hoe die 4X4 werk was `n “eye opener” en vir ons baie waardevol. Ben was baie goed in sy aanbieding en ken sy vak gebied goed. Ons het gemaklik gevoel om baie vrae te vra. Alles was in orde Saterdag, lekker kos, baie drinkgoed en goeie geselskap.

Nou spaar ons vir die advance kursus J . Dit is die volgende kursus wat ek baie graag wil doen.

Baie dankie

Vriendelike groete

12 November 4x4 Opleiding

Goeie middag

Dit was baie lekker en alles was great.

Net jammer daar was nie meer Landy manne nie, maar nou ja 2 Landies was seker genoeg om maar te wys wat die beste is. Sien dit as ‘n demo.

4x4 Opleiding - 12 November 2011

Die dag was awesome en ek het dit geweldig geniet. Die aanbieding was uitstekend, ek het baie geleer en die prakties was net so lekker en uitdagend. Ek sal dit vir enige 4x4 eienaar aanbeveel.

Groete

Hi Rene,

Dit was ‘n wonderlike dag en ons het dit vreeslik geniet. Nogmaals dankie aan Ben vir sy uiters professionele opleiding.

Groetnis

Rene

Baie dankie vir jou mail.

Ons het die opleiding baie geniet en in die proses baie geleer.  Ek dink dit word op 'n baie professionele manier gedoen en julle moet daarmee volhou.  Tydens die opleiding word daar ook baie aandag aan elke individuele voertuig eienaar gegee om seker te maak dat hy/sy die voertuig ten volle verstaan en weet waartoe die voertuig in staat is.

Dra die boodskap ook so aan Ben Naude oor en bedank hom vir die professionele manier waarop die opleiding gedoen word.

Vriendelike Groete

Dear Ben

Undine and I would like to thank you very much indeed for the training you gave us yesterday. It was a most beneficial day for us both and has given us a clear understanding of our and our vehicles abilities.

Kind regards

Bill Reder

Although I didn't have the courage to actually drive I did feel I understood a lot and would like to thank you seriously for everything.  You make an excellent teacher.  Your lunch was also excellent.  Had I not been so exhausted and tired I know I should have driven - I was foolish not to have - especially with you as my teacher.  I will say that I had only driven the vehicle for 2 hrs. and that was without the AHA actually in place!  I felt you gave us a great deal of confidence in the vehicle and how to drive it - certainly Bill proved it!!  Thank you again very much - I now have to read the little manual and begin my career as a 4 x 4 driver!

Kind regards

Undine Reder
 
 

 
 

Hi Rene

WOW, what a day of fun in the sun that was. Just want to thank you and your team for a most enjoyable day driver training with Ben. It was really

informative and worth it. At least now I know what to do and how to do it. Again many thanks and I will have no hesitation in recommending your course

to any friends, relatives or work colleagues.

With regards

Goeie more,

My man en seun het die 4x4 beginnerskursus die 19de Februarie bygewoon as bestuurders en ek was net 'n passasier.

Ek wil julle net komplimenteer en bedank vir die goeie aanbieding.

Ben Naude was 'n baie goeie instrukteur, en het die tegniese deel so goed aangebied dat tot ek, wat tegnies en meganies totaal gestrem is, alles goed kon verstaan!

Baie dankie vir 'n heerlike dag, ons het dit werklik geniet en baie geleer.

I would like to compliment your workshop staff on another job done that exceeds my expectations.

Over the ten odd years I have had work done by Manny it always comes out better than I expect. Over the years I have asked the oddest requests he has ever had; and he always “makes a plan”. What he does lasts and lasts and I appreciate his attention to detail.

Congratulations
Martin Summerley

 
 
 
 

Good morning Wimpie,

Just to tell you how pleased I am with the professionalism at Safari Centre. Your colleague who did the work on my X Trail and Trailer told me how difficult it was but he did it really well. My support for Safari Centre(I have recommended you to several of my friends; the Holahan’s, the Human’s), is fully justified and I just wanted you to know that.

Many thanks to you and your colleagues.

  I would just like to thank you for the excellent training course that you guys offered over the weekend. We enjoyed the day tremendously and learned so much!

If you could please pass on our thanks to Alfonso. The way in which he presented the course was awesome. He not only taught us incredible things about our vehicles and the safety aspects, but kept us entertained throughout the session. None of us where really excited about 3-4 hours theory, but all walked out of that session amazed by what we had learned.

Thank you again, I can assure you that I will recommend your training centre to anyone I know and meet and will definitely be enrolling for the advanced course once I have a little more experience in my vehicle.

Regards,
Darryn & Nicky Potgieter

 
 
 
  To your brilliant team at Safari Centre in Menlyn, thank you for the superb sales advice and fitment of many items that I have purchased over the past year or so.

I would and will, recommend your team's services to all.
Keep up the customer focus and you will continue to grow your organisation the way you have.

Well done!!!

Kind regards,

  • Verloor silver-pen van Nuvi 710 (jack) wat by aansteker inprop.
  • Bel Garmin.
  • Hulle verwys my na 'n paar plekke. (Safari Centre was nie een nie)
  • Besluit om sommer na Safari Centre te ry.
  • Daar kry ek ‘n jong man met die naam Danie.
  • Hy pluk daar 'n ander stuk draad uit ’n plastiese sakkie, skroef die punt met al sy goeters uit en bou dit oor op myne
  • Ons toets dit in die motor maar blaas die sekering (fuse) .....eisch!
  • Geen moeite, ou Danie spring daar weg en druk n ander sekering daar in.
  • Daar werk die ding asof hy betaal word!
  • Vra toe vir Danie hoeveel moet ek hom (Safari) betaal?
  • “Nee-wat” sê hy “jy skuld ons niks, dit is 'n plesier!!”
  • Kon nie glo dat sulke diens en vriendelikheid nog bestaan nie.

Baie dankie aan Danie en Safari Centre - ek beveel julle aan by al my vrinne!

Groetnis,

  Dear Franco at Safari Centre Upington

Just to say thank you once again for interrupting your Sunday to open up for us. We really appreciate your kindness and your exceptional service.

We had a fantastic trip into the Kglaghadi and were blessed with many wonderful sightings.
We wish you every success and again congratulate you on an exceptionally well presented and stocked shop.

Sincerely,
Brian and Elaine Elliott

  I would like to comment on the excellent service that I received from one of your sales guys while down in Durban a month ago. I needed some small spares for my Outback roof rack, which I could only get directly from the dealer in Johannesburg. I was down in Durban for two days and popped into your shop in Gateway Centre late one evening. The next morning he called me and said I could come to collect the spares.

Regards,
Jaco D Smit

 
 
 
  Hiermee wil ons Safari Centre weereens bedank vir die taktvolle wyse waarop jul instrukteur ons ingelig het oor ons voetuig se vermoë en verrigtinge en alle tegniese inligting wat vir ons van groot waarde is.

Vriedelike groete,
Ronell van Rensburg

 
 
 
 

In this day and age, service delivery is in most cases non-existent (in SA). I recently had the privilege of receiving service which went beyond their call. Safari Centre is to be commended for their excellent service. I needed to have an OME suspension fitted to my Toyota for the Easter weekend. The necessary spares arrived at the branch at 16h30 on Thursday 20 March 2008. I was promised that it would be fitted and be ready for collection. I arrived at 19h00 and everything was fitted. I could not believe it - these guys did not have that 'long weekend' attitude! I will definitely be back.

Thanks once again Safari Centre!

  I am writing to you to thank you for the outstanding service received by your company. I often go into your store, sometimes just to browse and have, over the last few months, purchased close to R15 000 of accessories for my Hilux as a few friends and I are planning a trip to Botswana.

I have never received anything less than friendly service and good, solid impartial advice from all the staff in the store! This must be the reason why you are so successful at what you guys do! I am also in the service industry and fully understand the value of service levels such as you offer in our country today. It is like taking a breath of fresh air when I walk into your store.

My vehicle will be coming in sometime to have a roof rack fitted, and I look forward to seeing you all.

Once again, my sincere thanks, I will not hesitate to recommend your company to all my friends and family and especially to my "comrades" in the 4x4 club. May you go from strength to strength!

Kind regards,
Tim Peach

 
 
 
  I would just like to extend my thanks to you.

I attended your beginners course two weeks ago and I enjoyed it immensely. I learnt a lot and hope to put this to good use in the New Year.

Regards,
Caroline
