Our story

About FilmAble

Specialised vehicle sourcing for the film and production industry, founded in Cape Town in 2009.

FilmAble was founded by Sarah de Waal (Erasmus) to address a gap in the Cape Town film industry: the need for a reliable, single point of contact for sourcing vehicles of any type, era or style for film, television, commercials and events.

Over more than a decade, what started as simple car sourcing has grown into a comprehensive operation covering research, coordination, transport logistics, vehicle construction, restoration, customisation, modification, painting, camouflage, peel coating, vinyl covering and professional driving.

Today, FilmAble is managed by Sarah de Waal (Erasmus) and Teuns Erasmus, bringing decades of combined experience and an extensive network of vehicle owners, suppliers and industry professionals.
