Soweto s vibrant culture is defined by two vehicles that are the iconic kasi cars. From taxi drivers to businessmen, these cars gave you street cred and even drew a nod of approval from your future mother-in-law: the Gusheshe and Kentucky Rounder. The fresh loafs , as Papa G calls them, because, My broer, these cars were fresher than a fresh loaf of bread .
The Gusheshe (BMW 325i e30) and Kentucky Rounder (Toyota Twincam GLI Sprinter) are part of an iconic Sisonke Siya Winna car giveaway competition by Vodacom. This football season, two lucky fans will each win a custom-rebuilt Gusheshe (Orlando Pirates) and Kentucky Rounder (Kaizer Chiefs) in the team s style and colours.

You can’t buy cool. You can’t buy a feeling or a memory. But in a workshop in Paarl, Vodacom and the team at LA Customs are busy creating an iconic car that will embody everything of the iconic status of Kaizer Chiefs Football Club, and which will take one lucky winner back to a historic era in South African football history.
Gino Lange, the owner of LA Customs, was the man tasked by Vodacom to search the countryside for an authentic Toyota Twincam GLI Sprinter, or a Kentucky Rounder as it’s always been known on the township streets, as part of Vodacom’s Sisonke Siya Winna campaign.
