    Keep in mind, the Chinese Government forces drivers to dispose of cars after 60,000km. This is why VW keep selling older models, albeit revamped, for purchase at a lower price.

    And here's the US complaining about auto-motive pollution from China!

    It also means we can bring in 60k, run in Chinese motors for next to nothing! Well, I'm not sure how many dubbers would like a Chinese made motor in their car but heck, I'd take a 1.8T please

    Hmm now that's an intriguing proposition! They'd be dirt cheap with the amount of cars they go through. I can't find much info on them, but do any of them use the same 1.8T that we're accustomed to?

    The ECU's would almost certainly be different, but everything else would be pretty much the same by my guess.

    So there are actually turbocharged derivatives of the aforementioned ugly automobile?
