pogweasel Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Just looked at the website again and wonder if they are planning to export any here. I'd have one if it was cheap enough.ANd how on earth are they going to get one of those past the EuroNCAP tests? Is it possible to have negative stars? Perhaps a special award for 'most impressively maimed dummy' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 How truely horrid. They've done the standard Chinese thing of, erm, 'borrowing' a design and then making it look cheap and nasty without seemingly any effort. Maybe it's just the website but I wouldn't buy them a coffee let alone hand over a few grand for a shonky Moke.Probably the way the spec sheet is about as vague as you can get... the 1050cc engine suddenly becomes a 110cc. they tell you the bore and stroke (find THAT in a Vauxhall Astra brochure!) yet forget to tell you, ooooh I dunno, ANY safety features, performance figures, economy - the things you look at when buying a car! Or maybe the way it promises 5 seats, yet the picture clearly shows four individual seats, no bench.I'd be surpsied if they actually exist TBH.Do you know “Mokeâ€Â, the "Moke" car had have long-standing history civilization, which is been first manufacture by the U.K. Longbridge plant for 1964-1968, we developed new "Moke" jeep againe,the new "Moke"car keep it's aboriginal manner, we not only remain the original style, but also improve it to meet current requirements of modern traffic.such as original especial rubber shock absorber,gear box,Chassis....and use ECU electron control injection engine to meet exhaust emission standard.....

garethj Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 ANd how on earth are they going to get one of those past the EuroNCAP tests? Is it possible to have negative stars? Perhaps a special award for 'most impressively maimed dummy' There's also an NCAP rating for pedestrian safety, I should imagine the driver would be hurt the same as a pedestrian in an accident. Unless the pedestrian was a big chap of course, when the Moke driver would be a gonner Where's China Tom when you need him? Is it from the same factory that did the rip-off Jeep Cherokees? They don't seem to have a design department, just a very big photocopier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
