You can't honestly tell me that when you look at that heap of tin that it isn't one of the fugliest cars out there.

It's all about context...price v spec....for what it is it's rather good value. ZA needs clearly needs more affordable vehicles...yes lack of ABS is a big bummer but compared to the GO & other Chinese crap this is a sure winner at the price point.

Plus is good to support the underdog also....

Do we get the Kwid III or the I?
 
unusually small 13” tyres, each one held in place by three wheel nuts

Really hate small wheels, they have a greater chance of getting punctured, especially with all the potholes on South African roads.
 
It's definitely better than a Go or other Chinese rubbish but that doesn't change the absolutely terrible build quality.

I love Renault but I wouldn't recommend this to my enemy... A 1 year old Sandero is much better value.
 
Impressive!

Will be interesting to see where it ranks in a couple of month's time once the "newness" is gone.
