Hi

well as far as I know the trend is imported in Semi Knock Down form and assembled by Micro. So its not really built by them.

Yes the Trend is a copy. We had the discussion before. Some Chinese thing. I dunno if we export the Trend, tho we did the earlier car.

I can't find it either, so I'm not blaming you I remember Madmax putting it up tho.

i've seen a couple of those Chinese ones on the roads... in addition i think there's a Malaysian version too, by Perudo (is that spelt right? the kelissa maker)

I think the company is called Hafei and the model Hafei Lobo, I believe

thats rather disappointing

probably whats economically feasible

was at least the first mico an original design?

I thought everyone knew that Micro Trend/MPV and the new car are all borrowed designs from Hafei. The collaboration is mentioned on the Micro website. But the Micro Econo was an original concept.

thats some consolation
