I reckon it's all politics...why are we in the middle of the greatest boom this country has ever seen? China...it's the way of saying "thank you china for signing a $2billion contract with us" imo

Also this is a great "mother in-law" car..."here mum bought you a brand new car, see how much i love you!! " jokin hahaha

End of the day Australian government can import thousands of these if they wish cause it would take a fool to ACTUALLY BUY these cars. And if they are dumb enough to, well..

The problem is that it's not just the fools who buy one of these things that feel the brunt of it.

A few years back I turned my Lancer in front of a Mitsubishi Challenger which was doing about 70kph. Impact on my front left corner and his front right, so almost exactly what the standard offset-impact test is. The two occupants of the Challenger walked away with a few scrapes and a couple of broken fingers - trapped between her body and the airbag.

I got a Due Care & Attention charge and a small fine. If it had been one of these Landwind things, I'd probably have been facing a judge on two charges of culpable driving, along with a lifetime of guilt for what should have been a survivable accident.

Lets not get onto the Fourby thing again.
The thing is alot of people buy with purely their wallet in mind. If they see a brand spanking car with 5/3 yr warranty on it for 10k they'll buy it. Especially if its a nice pink one that you can bung shiny wheels on.
