Any indication as to why the last one is not on the ground?

Because it’s either a mule, or probably don’t want the hydraulic suspension locking up(this wouldn’t make sense though coz the wheels seem to be on a surface)

Just guesses here.

Unfortunately this Top Auto bot won’t respond either. It’ll just remain a mystery for now.

The 2020 (latest gen) one?

It’s Mr Lazarus’s personal vehicle brought into SA, the only 1 in the country. It is part of his collection.

It’s also serves as a “show piece“ in his flagship dealership.

Seems to be on some contraption that will allow it to rotate 360 deg.
"The 2020 Ford GT is reported to be the only one in South Africa, and due to importation constraints on new left-hand-drive cars it’s unlikely to touch a public road any time soon."

Maybe its literally not meant to touch road or ground :p

The trolley allows it to be moved about the showroom floor without Mr Colin Lazarus having to give the keys to a 30 percenter employee.

But a 30% employee still needs to move the trolley around . Maybe it’s more of a mileage thing

Yep, you need a strong oke with some muscles to do that. Preferably a prop who played 3rd team rugby in HS.
And moving a trolley manually is far less risk than giving out the keys.
Saves on engine wear as well, 90% of engine wear happens in the first 3 minutes when the engine is cold.
