Buying your first car is always an experience worth documenting.

An adorable moment saw a little boy receiving a mini Range Rover SV he supposedly bought and driving out of the dealership with his new set of wheels. The 'purchase,' without a doubt, amused many comedic South Africans.

On 12 July, 2025, sales executive @nzamacars at Land Rover Centurion in Gauteng shared on his TikTok account how the toddler, JR, had to sign for his R8 000 vehicle before seeing it. After revealing the black two-seater that was hidden under a cover, the boy received a round of applause.

@nzamacars wrote in the caption of his post:

"Congratulations, JR, on the purchase of your Range Rover SV."

Young car owner humours South Africans

The viral video received over 2.2 million views since its publication, with thousands of social media users heading to the comment section. Many South Africans could not help but crack jokes, playfully likening the little boy to an adult man with deep pockets.

@missluvolee humorously wondered:

"How is JR funding the monthly payments and insurance? Does he have a source of income? I think it’s time to involve the Hawks."

@tsa_south stated with a laugh:

"I thought we were only allowed to get our driver's licence at age 16."

@melaniemampane joked in the comment section:

"I know him. I once lent him money to buy sweets."

@i_am_chrys_ shared under the post:

"Minister of Crayons needs a lifestyle audit."

A comical @username55502 remarked in the comments:

"Technically, he’s not liable for the repayment of that vehicle. We all saw on social media that he was coerced into signing for it."

An amused @winniemillion wrote under the post:

"This is so cute. I love it! A whole formal collection and document signing. He is even dressed to match the colour of his car. Then the boy is looking everywhere but the road while driving. I hope he made it home safe with the car."
