China catches the spirit of Route 66 (1 Viewer)

Chinese imported motorhomes on the horizon ?

been monitoring the truck and bus side of the chinese motor industry for several years . i have said before soon you wont be able to buy almost any vehicle that isnt made in china.
many of you may already be driving chinese made vehicles and not know it. europe is definately in for awake up call. think of a manufacturer and i can possibly show you a chinese sister company . try googling chinas truck and bus . or even china cars .

have seen some based on the huejin .also saw one once near the welsh border it was on what i at first thought was a nissan. was told it was a chinese mazda .it was 4x4 . i took a number .ranmg back a few weeks later and it had gone. shame it was a nice strong coachbuilt.
but dont think it will be long . lots of cars vans trucks being sneaked in as eu built ,but really only built in eu made in china.
