Almost looks like it doesnt have a chassis!!! It just folds! 8O :lol:

That Geely doesn't.That is why I wanted to see it on the hoist.
Russians crashed it a lot and made a big fuss about it, sort of like " LOOK OMG THERE IS A WORSE CAR THAN LADA!!!".
What will happen - typical nose to tail resulting in fatality will quickly remove this crap off the road.
Besides it will filter stupid and incompetent.

I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!

Isn't that a AE100R?
No "stance", no "hellaflush", none of that bullshit. Nothing but no grip on full boost.

Unfortunately...the poor and un-educated are not always the stupid and incompetent.

Thats the nastiest piece of sh*t new car on the road in this country surely. Who would want a new car here badly enough to buy one of these over something Japanese or even dare I say it, Korean thats a couple of years old.

Hyundais from the mid 90's (i.e. when they changed their badge to their current stylised H design) are actually really good and can be had for pretty cheap since their reputation still wasn't the best then (there is lag between car quality and public perception which is why people still Land Rover make quality cars and why people still may think Hyundai don't...even though the results of multiple Intitial and long term quality surveys suggest otherwise: LandRover = at the bottom, Hyundai at the top in recent years)

Why would some one bother on spending ~3-4k on shipping this peice that worth 5k new, and nothing second hand (unsellable, maybe scrapyard for metal, not the metal there is quality)? And knowing how Chinese build their stuff life time approximately 2 years (or 30-50k). I know for a fact that Ladas needed rebuilt after 50k, judging how this piece is built I doubt it will last any longer.
