Off Topic/China-Business

Doug, I think you need help for your obsessive hatred of all things Chinese!

Ni don't need bloody help, I remember only to well the good quality of products we had as a kid , what our parents bought lasted , it lasted for years and years , as in white goods, Electrical household appliances, clothing, damn it even the little old 1950 Morris Minors are still running around , I bet that nice Korean Kia a Forumite was on about yesterday won't be still going in 57 years time, No shaker I don't help, especially yours thank you, I been around long enough to see the difference of what we had and then and what we got now , Look I know there would have to be some very good Chinese tools, can't imagine mechanics using split sockets every day , just that the Aussie stores are full of absolute money wasting rubbish, but if thats what you want to waste your hard earned dollars on then go for it , I'm not that stupid,

And what kind of nice Aussie made vehicle do you drive, then?

Morris minors were English as I recall, and there are very few of them driving around. There are far more Trabants, actually, so they must be better quality to use your logic.

The Toyota Tiara that came to AU was RUBBISH. That didn't stop the Japs from improving and building reliable but soulless cars.

Kias have never been as rubbishy as the Tiara was, and are now more reliable than most on the overseas surveys.

The Chinese are producing a lot of rubbish, but they are also producing a lot of quality products.

Are you dense or what, I didn't say I drove any car, I do drive a Japanese vehicle if that's any help to you, there is nothing wrong with products from Japan, NZ , USA, Taiwan, Europe , UK, but as I said not Cheap and I do emphasise the word CHEAP chinese rubbish, just have a look in places like Silly Solley's , you would have to be more than silly to spend money there,
So don't waste my time with your stupid comments , If you want to discuss something of more importance then I will be only too happy to do so ,.

The problem with Chines goods is that many Australian Importers only want to buy the cheap crap. The Aussies then make a quick buck, and the consumer has to buy another one. Theres some very good quality stuff out of China.

My my, the Doug God is touchy - don't waster your time indeed -

You are a kindergarten child the way you respond to any view that is not your own, and when you are caught out, you resort to childish behaviour.

I suggest you go and have a Bex and a good lie down. I'm sure you will still have some Bex, since nothing since then has been as good, and you would surely have stocked up.

Doug, I can remember when our parents said anythiing from Japan was crap!

Attention Doug

Since you are fond of providing links for people to look at stuff you agree with,

here is one you can learn from.

Korean cars top the reliability ratings in the US - Hyundai wins 5 classes, and KIA wins 2.

Yeh so what... tell me where you have seen me knocking Hyundai, I had a Sante Fe towing Caravan overtake me and the truck a few weeks back and I thought it was performing good, BUT is it going to go the distance like Toyota, I don't think so or you would see 1000s of them in the Mining Industry, The one thing you gotta do is open your eyes and absorb whats going on and I don't think you would have the same amount of travelling as I do to achieve that, It seems you get all your info from Journo's who in my opinion are a bunch of Wwaannkkeerrss at the best of times,Hyundai's are not CHINESE either,
I have at this time Korean tyres on my Troopy, not sure if I will be using Hankooks again, I don't thety are going to do the Ks , but for $210 each I didn't have a lot of faith, next time it will be Yokohama, made in JAPAN,
Now if you will excuse me I have to go and earn some $$$ to help pay for those expensive items I buy that are not made in China that last many times longer, Yep I am off to Dampier this time , Out there on the road gaining even more experience that your feeble brain finds hard to absorb 2% of what your told.
