wanna see a Chinese 4Runner?

I live in the BVI, a country with effectively no copyright laws.

As such, we are the lucky recipients of Great Wall cars, a Chinese brand that copies other manufacturers' successful models part for part then renames them.

They are really pieces of crap, and fall apart pretty quickly.

here's the Great Wall "Safe", a copy of a Hilux Surf (Jap 4runner), complete with the same ripped off decals

sorry about the rubbish phone photos, but you get the picture...

Other then the graphics being hokey, Honestly, the pic's just don't say/see much.
How about some daytime pic's of one fallen apart or broken axles or something, motor, interior pics.

BVI -- British Virgin Islands ?

Yeah, British VI. I've been to Tortola and Jost van Dyke. GREAT Scuba diving! Ever been to a Bomba Shack Full Moon Party?

Oh my god these are the funniest, jankiest looking vehicles ever.

Check out the "Big Monster"


Or the CoolBear

"Great Wall Coolbear - it is exceptionally practical wagon, stylish and compact passenger car, mainly suitable for men. Its shape attracts attention, highlighting the car from the crowd."



HAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAH

Yep, Bombas full moon is legendary


we also get the:

Cool Bear (Nissan Cube i think...)
Hover (Honda FRV)
Deer (2nd gen Hilux)
Wingle ! (susiciously lilke a Mitsubishi L200)
Peri (Fiat Panda)

I got a lift in a 6 year old Deer the other day, and there was barely a piece of interior trim still attached in the cabin, bits hanging off everywhere

It looks like that's not the only one's there knocking off

Looks like a Chevrolet Silverado



This is called a JAC 4R3 or maybe--------------- a Ford F150.

Most of the police cars in Gambia, West Africa were those fake Great Wall pickups. I think China gave them in trade for Gambia's fishing rights.

I hate to say this but....even the foreign militia boys, camel jockeys and terrorists are smart enough to run genuine Toyotas in the deserts...
