Howzit Shayne,
I've looked into myself some time ago and I found a few things. They say as long as you can prove that you've owned the vehicle for more than one year in the UK, that you are planning on settling back in SA (closed UK accounts etc) and a few others things, you should be able to do it duty free. Most car shipping organisations give you all the info you need.
Cheers,
Sam

Got the t shirt on this one
There has been a fair amount written on this topic by me and others on the forum, so a search will throw up most of what you need.
3 years down the road, my advice is to make sure that the vehicle you want to bring is a 'keeper' and worth having because it can be a long, painful road with registration on this side. And you're going to have to hang onto it for at least 2 years in SA (once registered).
Re Bakkies' comment, the only thing you have to do as far as proof goes is show you've owned the vehicle for a year. No bank nonsense or anything like that.
