After Siya Kolisi, Eben Etzebeth, and Dricus du Plessis were spotted with matching Mercedes-Benzes, it has now come to light why the champion athletes were hanging out in KwaZulu-Natal with their million-rand vehicles.

The three men shot an advertisement for an accommodation site, and the results had South Africans busting.
