Chinese Land Cruiser

[B92 8NW]

I'm not sure if this has been posted before but I found it today during my internet trawling. At an equivalent cost of $15,000 for the base model its a bloody cheap Land Cruiser. Seems like a heap of crap too, only comes with a manual and 4 cylinder petrol... even the Toyo 6 was slow, this most be horrid!

Presenting the "Zhongxing Fuqi 6500"

I looked on their website and all the vehicles are previous generation isuzu's, mazda's, toymota's and even a honda crv copy. Biggest worry is the 'Performance constant speed oil consumption 7L/ 100klm ' !
7 litres of oil per 100k's, a landy cant leak oil that quick.

yeah i thought the D/Cab ute looked like an older model Rodeo

Yeah LOL, when I read that I thought WTF before realising it was the Asian attempt at fuel consumption:D. Noticed the CRV copy to. Do they wait until the licenses expire and then just copy them?

[LandyAndy]

No they dont copy them,they buy them.
How many of you relise the Terracan is the old Pajero?????
TRUE STORY!!!!!,just a different body style.

Yes they have won me over with their smooth slick marketing words...

It is equipped with power window (I wonder which window it is? I'm guessing the drivers window right?).
electric backward mirror (a what???).
power turning (is this like drifting?).
fashion interior decorations. (yes but are decorations an optional extra?).
Striking instrument board (sounds very Land Rover like).
open vision build the good driving environment in which you can highly enjoy your driving. (couldn't of said it better myself).

and the ute...
which common person can afford really and fill the bland on the market. (common person??? I thought we all drove Land Rovers??? fill the bland? that's a Defender right??).
Comparing with minicar, the inside of pickup truck is more capacious (just say roomy damit).
The ability of carry cargo is the feature of pickup truck. (just in case all the above hasn't won you over).

:eek:

It's simply a matter of perspective, lets put it in a real life situation...
You are stuck on a desert island, you have the choice of driving;
A - Terracan.
B - TaTa.
C - Samyang Muso.

(no, you can't walk because your big toes are broken).
See, I bet you all picked the Terracan. :D

Yes, the current Teracan is an evolution of the live rear axle Pajero design, licensed from Mitsubishi.

It's not so unusual is it? The Santana PS10/ Anibal is a Series III Land Rover evolved over 20 years and about three versions. Arguably a better vehicle than a Defender (I did say arguably!) with no seat box (so has elbow room) and leaf spring 109inch chassis.
