Mhlongo receives stunning Mini
Although his playing days are behind him, footballer-turned-broadcaster, Brighton Mhlongo is flourishing like any high-profile baller after receiving a new ride.
Mhlongo will be negotiating the Johannesburg traffic, driving to The Morning Show studios in a Mini Cooper SE, which is valued at R 754 800.
The all-electric three-door hatch boasts a 215 KM electric range, driven by a high-voltage, 96-cell, 32.6 kWh battery pack that's mounted under the floor, which gives it an extra low centre of gravity, which not only improves stability and handling, as mentioned by the Mini site.
