On those days when life is a little too much and nothing seems to be going right, I pause for a moment to ponder the wise last words of my grandfather:  "I wonder where the mother bear is?"

No, there are some subtle, but pretty serious differences.  The tailgate is structurally very different.  But there are a lot of similarities so I would guess it's japanese.

It looks a lot like one of the Nissan range that is built in UK, it has an unpronouncable and unspellable name begins with a "Q" but there are several variations, it could also be a Kia from Korea which are getting quite popular here in UK, might have something to do with the seven year warranty and OTR price.

You mean the Qashqai?

It isn't, for sure.

It's a Chinese copy of a Korean copy of a Japanese copy of an American Jeep, which these days is a copy of a Chevy, but it looks like a Ford.

Settled?

I thought so...

:confused:





















:D
Every zero you add to the tolerance adds a zero to the price.

If the product "fails" will the product liability insurance pay for the "failure" until it turns 18?

looks like a mitsubishi to me... but i know i'm wrong.

i bet it's hard as hell to get parts for a chinese knockoff of a japanese car ;)

Aaaaaah! I see! - the apple that is.

I have just seen an ad in my local paper for the "New Skoda Yeti" it only has a side-on picture but looks very similar. Todays Skoda tends to have a good build quality, very VW/Audi like.

It's a mitsubishi endeavor...anyone who says different is a little dillusional.  The logo is a fake and doesn't mean anything.  There are ZERO structural differences.  Someone just wants to screw with people.

if you really want to know what it is go to the local dmv with the plate number.. in most states they'll run the plate and give you the make, model and year of the vehicle and the address of the owner.  it's 10$ to do it here.  they do this for hit and run insurance claims where you don't have the other drivers info and need to file a claim.
