Every time I leave the house I see a lot of brands that get torn to shreds on here and in reviews. I'm even seeing a lot of the LDV utes and a couple tank 300's which is surprising because I've always thought reliability and being well made were some of the most important factors in off-road vehicles (being said, ive never seen mud on any of them)
If these cars are so shit, why are so many people voting with their wallets and buying them? Is the price really that alluring?
It worries me that other manufacturers might start cutting corners and making cheaper less reliable if that's what the consuners are buying.
Edit: MG car of the year???? According to racq MG is the 7th most sold brand in this country ahead of brands like Subaru and Isuzu
Cause they're relatively cheap for what you get
Personally, I'd never buy a cheap Chinese car, but then again, that's what people said when Hyundai entered the market in the mid 90s with the Oz Excel. It was cheap and sold well.
My brother in laws brand new MG ZS shitbox had the remote shit itself recently. They were in a shopping centre carpark and he wasnt able to unlock his car with the remote key fob.
Apparently the MG guys said that the frequency band used in the remote had a lot of traffic, and so sometimes it won't actually work. And theres no real fix for it at the moment.
It's this kind of cheap crap that people dont think of when buying a new car.
