Hey, I located that gas station with the EV charger, so I knew you were in the UK. No idea what this car is, but looks like a Hyundai with the steering wheel on the wrong side and a stick shift.

so i just wandered around the outdoor lot of a car dealership (citroen, nissan, mg) and saw one of these HS there. on the windshield sticker it said 'made in china' which was interesting to me.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MG_HS

the vehicle is incredibly 'generic' - could be a nissan/toyota/vauxhall/chevy/ford/bmw/etc.

but what's VERY impressive is the material and build quality. i would rate it PERFECT for its intended market.

without tariffs, i continue to believe china (and india) will simply overwhelm the global car market in the coming years.

This is a game I would never win cuz they all look so much alike to me.

Leather seats or cloth?
A hint like that may help give it away tho...

I didn't know what either of these is, but I like that the first one has a car shower option to keep the driver clean and fresh.
