Trade them in? You aren't supposed to trade them in. They're like circular saws: you throw them away once the blade gets blunt.

I should add, though: There are many, many quality goods made in China. They are made under the quality control supervision of the parent company, which is not Chinese. The computer I'm typing this on, for example, was made in China 13 years ago and is still excellent. I have drawers full of American branded, Chinese made cordless tools that are awesome. A number of European brand cars are built there. But the old saying, "you get what you pay for", holds very true here.
Nor mine. Even if someone else is paying for it.
People compare them to Japan. I'm old enough to remember when everyone laughed at Japanese cars. Thing is, those cars, the RT40 Corona, the Colt 1100, the Datsun 1000, the strangely named Nissan Cedric, those cars, the ones that didn't die in accidents or get sent for scrap, are still going. I'm not psychic, but I reckon I can predict that the same won't be said of these LDVs, Havals etc. in 60 years. My D1 might be though. Well, it's already 30..
well the dealer values their vehicle higher than I do....so.....no deal. Chinese connection dead.
if you were buying @ $45k , without a sermon , what would you buy?
Mahindra? Agricultural, like a 'Proper' 'tilly.
