Yes the South African VWS factory (in Uitenhage) was started around the same time as the one in Melbourne - the early 1950s. Theirs is still going, bigger and better than ever, while ours died. Hmm, they must be doing something right! Our Polos and Jettas come from South Africa.

Here's one VW club based in Cape Town:
