We like to appreciate the excellent and efficient service that we received from Mr Bongani Magubane (BMW Fountain Circle ). It was beyond our expectations, He is the super and efficient Sales person , He is very professional and smart person, he is very friendly and good listener , he makes sure that he delivers more than your expectations , I bought a BMW X3 from him can you imagine the whole deal was done online smoothly , from time to time he was giving me feedback as to how far was deal , I had nothing to worry about , the whole process took less than a week , the next minutes the car was delivered, can you imagine he delivered the car himself from Pretoria to KZN and car was clean in a good condition and shinning , it was everything that I saw online and expected . I would highly recommend anyone to buy from Bongani , trust me you won’t regret he is the best and he will meet all your requirements and expectations .

A Pretoria landmark, this is probably the best-known traffic circle in SA(definitely in Pretoria). It is definitely the only one in the city which has a decorative centre.

It was called "Fountains circle" because of its proximity to Fountains Valley, not because of the fountain in it(a common misconception).

The place really deteriorated in the late 1980s, with the fountain breaking and eventually drying up.

The flagpoles were installed in the 1990s, when the fountain was also fixed, and the art display was commissioned in about 2009(when the geological samples were also placed). I have never seen the flags being raised or struck, which seems rather bad form(it's disrespectful to leave the national flag out at night). They are at least lowered to half-mast on appropriate occasions.

The above-mentioned geological samples rather mar the ability to see the circle from vehicles and would be better placed somewhere else.

Although the inside of the circle belongs to the council's department of Parks and Recreation, there is no proper place to park cars and you have to dodge traffic to get inside.
