I am considering purchasing a Great wall utility 4x4. My budget will only cover a vehicle in this price range and I do not wish to purchase a secondhand vehicle. They are only new to the country, so would this be a wise decision? My current vehicle is a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited, which has been a nightmare, with faulty air-con and heating three times, seat heater problems, noisy diff, engine surging, faulty sensors, the list goes on and on and it's been super expensive to repair.
As you say the Great Wall utes are new to this country, and so far too few have made it on to the market to give us a good picture of what they're like. Having driven them when they were launched last year I can say they are at least one generation behind the current market leaders in that segment, but they seem reasonably well built and they're made from parts that are mostly hand-me-downs from other makes and models, so they should be well tried. At the end of the day you would be a pioneer if you bought one, going where few have gone before, but given your budget it's probably worth a punt.
