Under-Car is a network of fitment centres (35 during 2012) specialising in exhausts, shocks, tow bars, bushbars, rollbars, batteries, tyres, CV- joints, general mechanical repair work, car servicing etc.This company is associated with trusted brand names and is supported by De Graaf Exhaust Systems (since 1959), one of the largest exhaust manufacturers in South Africa.De Graaf Exhaust Systems and De Graaf Under-Car are linked by a licence agreement, because of this it is obvious that the success of the one will lead to the success of the other.In the past De Graaf Exhaust Systems allowed stockists of our products to use the name De Graaf at free will. Although it seemed a good idea at the time, in practice this never worked, because some outlets did the name proud and others not. As a result of this, market trends and at several of our customers requests it was decided to form a separate company called De Graaf Under-Car. In June 1999 an independent franchise was formed and registered, known as De Graaf Under-Car.In the early years exhaust fitment centres only fitted exhaust systems, but increased competition over the years changed this trend and more and more fitment centres were compelled to diversify into other product lines. Through the years De Graaf Exhausts Systems has built up a well-known brand name, but the name was mainly associated with exhaust systems. Although exhausts still form a major part of a fitment centre’s sales, to compete in this market it is vital to fit and supply a bundle of products. It was then decided that a different name was needed so that the consumer could associate the fitment centres with other products besides exhausts, yet maintain the advantage of the De Graaf brand name associated with exhausts, hence the name Under-Car.De Graaf Under-Car is associated with several well-known and trusted brand names like: De Graaf Exhausts, Gabriel Shock Absorbers, Dixon and Atlas Batteries, Hankook Tyres, Towmaster Towbars, Bullbars and Rollbars, Economic CV’S and Ferodo and Safe Line Brake Pads.
