a chinese 4x4 set to sell in europe has been branded the most dangerous car in the world
tests on the Jiangling Landwind showed the driver and front passenger would probably die in a 40mph head-on crash
the steering column speared the dummy in the chest
the floor disintegrated and the passinger dashboard became a lethal explosion of parts
this was a test from ADAC in Germany
and the report comes from the Sun friday 19th sept

Do they have 40mph crashes in China, if it's anything like Japan 4mph would be fast.

Don't think I'll be ordering one.

MMM yet more rubbish! The japs build top notch 4x4 as does the green oval but the koreans/ chinese build crap.
1 unlucky ssanyong owner at Kirton drowned his 2000 mile old car....it was seen limping away after i told him to get it recovered and checked properly.The water was only about a foot deep! the air intake was full and the filter had disintegrated.

Don't knock 'em. Give them a couple of years and they'll be building better cheaper everything. Get some shares bought now. I had a Jialing 125 Trail bike, a copy of aq 1980's Honda and despite the best efforts of serveral owners we couldn't kill it. You know who I mean Bulli? They may be crude now but whatch this space.

The VW Toerag looks very good in comparison (but I guess it's because it is a 25 year newer design).
