QUESTION 5
(a) Peter purchased a Mercedes Benz ML350 last week for R750900(VAT incl). While driving from Bendor Park in Polokwane he collides with Ken of Regime Removals, who is the owner-driver of a Porsche Cayenne. Peter is 25% negligent, whereas Ken is 43% negligent. The damage to the Porsche is estimated at R120000.00. It is uneconomical to repair the Mercedes Benz, but its salvage value is R205000.00. The pre-accident value of the Mercedes Benz was R699000.00.
With reference to the damages to Peter and Ken's motor vehicles, calculate who must pay whom, and what would be the amount in damages.
