There was a similar blue one at another dealer but got sold before I could get it. Seems most of them (I guess all cars) are white.

This sounds like big BS That would have been big headlines, not somehow "wiped off the internet" - which, we all know, is not possible...

Your BS meter needs upgrading. If handled correctly, it is not impossible to squash something.
See the posts before and after. Were forumites imagining this?

You okes are risking your lives.

There's a difference between somebody abusing a vehicle, and a model with the fault of half its wheels literally falling off.

XUV 3X0 AX5, yeah happy with it :). It was the colour I wanted, almost the spec I wanted. Very smooth to drive.
A friend managed to get a pickup for R70k less, it's this time of year they want to move stock.

You can probably even get it registered as a 2026 model if it hasn't been registered yet. December is the best time to get a car...

Dude, I could find anything on YouTube. But you may recall an unfortunate brand whose cars had an annoying habit of catching alight some years back. Now that got some internet attention. You are just grasping at straws and trying to make a noise over nothing. Maybe do something useful like buy Christmas presents or something. And be merry :)

Grasping at straws. Hilarious. First you say it was abuse and now you are changing your tune. Talk about grasping for straws. This thread now has multiple images/video of the same family of cars with their axles literally falling off due to shoddy welding and here you are defending it.
Seeing as you can find anything on Youtube. Please find us one of the Toyota Corolla with the same problem. You know, the most popular car in the world?

Yes Ford also had a serious issue and the cars were recalled and people still avoid them to this day. Good.

Grow up Scrooge. Here's something to make you choke on your Christmas cheer - the Tiggo 4 is currently the best-selling SUV in SA. Pretty good for a car whose axles fall off. :)

If it’s the same Hamilton White as the H6 it’s one of the nicer metallic whites which actually look pretty good.

Wasn’t planning on getting white myself but after seeing it in the flesh with some blacked out bits I was converted.

I believe it is the Hamilton White, yes.
 
LOL check the condition report. Smoking on start-up.
Also same as the one from the other day. Why are their things already that the condition in "as expected" on a almost brand new car.

Why would a near brand new vehicle be sold to WBC?

Good question. Pulled the condition report and saw this: "This vehicle was previously registered in the name of an insurer. This may indicate that it was involved in an accident, declared uneconomical to repair, or stolen and later recovered. This history could impact resale value and insurance"

Also, the back left is a different tyre to the rest - I'd definitely recommend anyone considering making a bid to at least drive through and take it for a test drive (and give it a very good eyeballing).
 
I mean, I get anything emotional.

Anything practical on a place like this makes sense, yes. The question of “Why?” still remains.

Maybe I enjoy my drugs more than you do, heh.
