Passwind with the lot.

Yeh I thought the same.....very Isuzu looking. And prob the engines too maybe the older engines. But maybe they are Mitsu's. Who knows?

The website link above does reveal that the vehicles share both Mitsubishi and Isuzu diesels, both tough and reliable.
My son who is a mechanic and both 4wd and motorcycle buff was looking at a dealership near his work in Melbourne, who sells new Chinese off road m/cycles.
He was very impressed with the build quality and said to me that if it had a Honda sticker on it, you wouldn't have questioned what you were looking at.
Whether it lasts as long as a Honda is an entirely different matter of course, but I also think that we can expect some pretty good stuff from this country.

True Blue.

TB there is no doubt you are correct, we can expect good stuff but "in a few years"
right now they seem to have a few issues to sort out yet, refer to this test.

I am pretty sure LR used the 3.9 4BD1 4 Cyl motor
Oz army still uses them to this day

Sorry, my mistake. The one the military use is a larger Isuzu Motor, Very similar to the Isuzu MU's 2.8 in design though.

Agree with you re china's manufacturing ability.
There is no doubt that at some time we will have chinese made cars here.

GM and VW are no 1 and 2 respectivly in chinese car manuafacturing.

GM certainly would source product for Australia if the price was right and the quality acceptable.
