Once upon a time, in the sun-soaked land of California, a man named Bruce Meyers looked at the vast sand dunes and thought, you know what would make this more fun? A tiny, ridiculous-looking car with no doors, no roof, and just enough power to make you scream. And just like that, in 1964, the first-ever Meyers Manx beach buggy was born.

Now, this wasn’t just any car. Oh no. It was light, zippy, and could glide over sand like a seagull after your fish and chips. People went mad for it. Celebrities drove them. Adventurers raced them. Hippies painted flowers on them. Before long, the beach buggy wasn’t just a car; it was a vibe.

Fast forward a few years, and these little beasts made their way to South Africa—where we took one look at them and said, Ja, this is lekker! In Cape Town, the beach buggy became an icon, a must-have for anyone who loved sun, sea, and a bit of adventure. With their wide tyres and open-air design, they were perfect for cruising the coastal roads, kicking up sand on the beach, or simply making a dramatic entrance at a braai.

Today, the legend lives on. And lucky for you, you don’t need to build one in your garage to experience the thrill. With the Cape Town Buggy Tour, you can hop into one of these classic machines and take to the road like a true 70s rock star—minus the bad hair and questionable fashion choices.

So, what are you waiting for? The buggies are revved up, the ocean breeze is calling, and there’s an adventure waiting for you. Climb in, hold on, and let’s buggy!
