Welcome aboard, Charles. Nice looking car, in India we have had Maruti 800 with comparable power figures, albeit from a 800cc three-cylinder engine. I've always wondered how expensive it is to own a car in China? Maybe you can talk a little more about the general car scene in China, companies, popular models, objects of desires etc.

kpbhatt · 13th November 2009, 17:31

thats a good looking car you have there Charles -- welcome to the forum.

Blue Thunder · 13th November 2009, 18:06

Hi, charlesxie, welcome to the forum ! I am sure you will enjoy the interactions on this forum.

Also, please do share your experiences about your great country with us. Some of the things that I find awe-inspiring about China...the rich cultural heritage, the martial arts (Shaolin temple) and of course, the culinary variety (noodles is one of my fav dishes alongwith Schezwan preparations).

That is a well-maintained car you have.

Gilead · 13th November 2009, 18:17

Welcome to the forum. Looks like beige is popular is China as well.

Exactly my thoughts! Lol, so we're not alone in the beige craze.

Welcome to the forum, Charles.

I read the thread name and thought, now this is the power of the 'net and ofcourse team-bhp

That's a cute car you have there, did you have to dig it out of the snow to take pics?

How is the car scene in China? Are small cars the majority like in India?
