Nothing but burnt down frames of 40 cars, which were once worth millions, are left.

Four of the dealership's burnt cars which protesters attempted to steal stood outside the gates in Jules Street.

The Salajee family has had the dealership since 1991. Owner Abdallah Salajee said when they closed shop on Saturday afternoon "everything was fine".

Salajee said they were alerted to the violence in the area on Sunday by the owner of a workshop next door.

"Overnight things happened, you come back to nothing on Monday morning. Last night there was not a minute of sleep.

"We feel terrible and we can't handle it. You can't even complain to the police or anyone," he told TimesLIVE.
