Super Auto Midas — Kokstad R56 Southern Drakensberg Parts and Repair
Kokstad sits at the junction of the R56 and R393, making it a natural waypoint for overlanders coming down from the Drakensberg foothills and heading toward the Wild Coast or swinging back toward Underberg and Sani. Super Auto Midas here stocks the kind of parts a trail rig actually needs — filters, belts, fluids, electrical bits, hoses, and a reasonable range of 4×4 consumables. It’s not a boutique off-road shop, but when you’re in a pinch between Underberg and the coast, Midas Kokstad is the most reliably stocked option in the area. The workshop side handles basic mechanical work alongside the parts counter.
Hours are Monday to Friday 08:00–17:00, Saturday 08:00–13:00, Sunday and public holidays 09:00–13:00. Located at 18 Hope Street in Kokstad’s central commercial strip — easy to find. Kokstad is approximately 70 km from Underberg via the R56, on paved road the whole way. Verify parts availability by calling 039 727 5588 before making a dedicated run.
