Truth about Chinese cars taking over South Africa

While the local automotive industry has made much noise about the increasing number of Chinese brands and cars arriving in South Africa, another country has already flooded the market.

There are most likely still a lot of people around who remember the first Tata's we had here. It's difficult to change their minds.

Well I have zero experience with them. so can't comment. Back in the day I knew plenty of people that tried the Tata's. Hell I even took their pickup for a test drive as I was in the market for a bakkie for work. It felt like a 20 year old Isuzu "plaasbakkie" with 300 000+ km on.
 
My most biggest concern when buying a car is aftermarket support. It doesnt help buying something where the support structure is not inplace and you cant get parts
Just sold my volvo a few months back when they started toning down their dealerships

To be fair, if you bought one of those first Tata bakkies, but bought it know that it was a 20+ yr old design at the time it was actually a perfectly acceptable vehicle... very agricultural, but also very easy to fix with a hammer basically

Agreed, but that's not the picture the sales rep painted of the vehicle. If I needed it for farm use, I probably would have bought it. The mirrors were just there to satisfy the laws. Utterly useless to see anything in due to the vibrations.
