          Personally I don't like Honda because of their light steering feel and flimsy bodies compared to Toyota and European cars.

          But Honda used to be in Formula 1 for a long time and will be back in 2026. Their tech is much better than most. Whether it would be trickled down to the cheaper consumer models is another issue. An well known example is their VTECH.

          However Mazda does have better design and look. I still remember they started to release their funky radically designed cars in the early 90s. Is form more important than substance? The market has proven I'm an old arrogant dude.

            @Commander1201: They got in early and built a dealer network in the mid-late '60s and were selling quality fully imported cars while most of the other Japanese manufacturers came in with the locally assembled, local content, impaired quality Frankensteins. Only Toyota seems to have survived and thrived after the local assembly experiment in Australia went belly up.

              It would be interesting to see how much this ended up costing the taxpayers over the decades. All the duties and taxes, and subsidies over many decades for an industry that produced substandard product then eventually went bankrupt.

            @byrno: I was going to put a sarcastic reply but instead thought to point out why I dont like them on the roads:

            1) There arent any self driving cars on the roads (Excluding some special use like mining sites)

            2) Modern cars with features such as autonomus breaking are a good thing and can make the roads safer. But almost all cars use Lidar - Lidar is a known technology and works brilliantly whilst what Tesla uses cameras and image recognition isnt nearly as mature - especially as some drivers think various bits of tech can be trusted to dive whilst they zone out (or even where FSD -which is a very misleading name- is available, have a nap)

            3) Tesla pushing out updates like its software not a car is very much an uncomfortable area:

            • byrno on 07/10/2023 - 22:58

              @Franc-T: Fair enough. I agree all driving aids are not made equal, e.g. with and without lidar, as you say. We’re certainly in a dangerous time where drivers are expected to nanny their semi-autonomous vehicles at the moment.

            • corneliu on 25/10/2023 - 21:54

              @Franc-T: A bit of a late reply, but all Teslas currently in Australia still have the Radar and Distance Sensors above the mirror. Which is why Teslas still phantom-breaks as the Radar can bounce waves off the wrong surface and give the wrong measurements.
              Most cars with autonomous breaking actually don't use Lidar but variations of Radar.
              Lidar is only really used in production cars Mercedes for Drive Pilot and the various fully autonomous wanna-be cars.

              • Franc-T on 27/10/2023 - 10:57

                @corneliu: Point taken on Radar, I was using the term to mean both and shouldnt have.

                Are you sure that Aus Teslas are using Radar? I thought they actually are disconnected and theres lots of news sources indicating same but nothing clear.

      I’ve wondered how they drive. Can you clarify what you disliked about the mg? E.g., slow acceleration, transmission was slow to shift gears or hesitated to find the right gear, or cvt droned, or excessive rubber band effect from cvt, lack of feel from steering, body roll when turning, cabin noise, brake feel, etc…

        I had an MG3, the little hatchback one.
        It felt like driving in a tin can. There is 0 insulation from the outside world, the doors close and feel like they don't even have seals on them. The engine was terrible, like my old n13 pulsar from when I was a teenager felt like it had more power. The 3-speed gearbox I think it had, used to just jump around, probably due to the lack of power.
        The interior plastics were all cheap AF as expected for a car that was like 23K new. We had issues with the infotainment system but I can't remember what they were now.
        I think the only good thing was you could put your foot down, the engine would scream and you felt like you were hooking along when you were only doing 40km/h. So you would pretty much never get done speeding.

              They keep moving the goalposts on what the stars mean so it's become meaningless. eg A 5 star car 20 years ago would struggle to get 2 stars now. And when you look at the scoring method it's a bit of a scam. They now give points for 'safety assist' meaning annoying those alarms and whistles count toward the safety of a car when really they are just a PITA. My 'driver assist' has almost caused more accidents than its prevented.

                  I'm sure it can help in some cases, my point is that it can also create problems, and we as owners of the vehicle should have a choice in the matter
                  To give you an example, I was turning across a busy three lane road one time, and there was small gap enough to squeeze through so I proceeded across the road. The car decided that the traffic coming towards me was a risk so emergency braked right in the middle of oncoming traffic and stopped me dead in the middle of the road. Had any one of the oncoming drivers been not paying attention we would've been T-Boned and my passenger likely dead or a paraplegic for life.
                  This is only one example of a few I've had, so I'll take my chances with my own abilities over a flaky computer thanks.

                    Its like ABS, sure in some conditions you may be able to stop faster but overall its much better, especially in the wet.

                      Ah well if it 'is known' there can be no arguing then… my own eyes and experiences must be lying to me…

                      Its like ABS, sure in some conditions you may be able to stop faster

                      It's completely unlike ABS. No human can brake as fast as ABS. This is a poor analogy.

                        @1st-Amendment: Its alike in the claims you are making that you are safer without it.

                        Also ABS isnt about braking as fast as you still need to depress brake pedal its about reactions when losing traction.

                          Its alike in the claims you are making that you are safer without it.

                          I am. I've had numerous incidents with autonomous braking that are dangerous. I've had none with ABS. They are completely different things

                          Also ABS isnt about braking as fast

                          It is exactly that. ABS works by detecting brake lock, then releasing and engaging the brake faster than any human could to avoid lock

                          about reactions when losing traction

                          That is a different system again. ABS and TCS work because they improve what you as the driver are already trying to do. Autonomous braking actually engages out of the blue even when you don't want it to. It is not the same concept.

                              Yeah I know from first hand experience that an completely unexpected emergency brake in the middle of oncoming traffic isn't 'safer'. But you do you.

        It doesn't automatically mean it has a bad safety.

          I’m sure if money grew on trees all parents would like to give their children brand new cars, unfortunately, this is the real world.

                  @Sinnerator: It’s an inanimate object that is replaceable. The whole point of a newer car is that it has more safety features than an 20-30 year old clunker and thus as an inexperienced driver if you make a mistake the safety features could protect you from dying. It’s not about showing off your luxury German car to your mates.

                    @illusion99: For what it's worth, I completely agree with you mate. Gotta love all these selfish parents making stupid comments like 'they didn't earn it', 'they shouldn't be driving luxury cars', 'they won't appreciate it' blah blah blah. Those are just strawman arguments used to hide their selfishness.

                    Good parents do everything they can to shepherd their kids through the part of their lives where they are at the most risk due to their incomplete brain development, and if that means they get the one safe car you can afford and you drive the unsafe one, so be it. The only reasonable exception is if you can't afford even one safe car at all.

                    Of course some parents don't actually care about their kids safety more than their own desire to drive a nice car, so the downvotes you're getting are from those losers. Your morals are rooted in family and life, theirs in materialism.

            @Madkant: Not spoon fed. Just valuing life over money and items. Never said it needed to be a luxury German car. Just one with decent safety features. Can be a new Kia and not one that is 20-30 years old.

          Standard equipment (basic models) includes six airbags, stability control, cruise control, Apple CarPlay (Android Auto is not available), reverse camera with sensors, guidelines and centimetres, switchable electronic power steering.

        It has no ANCAP safety rating because the rating has expired, not because it failed any tests. They've changed the system so that ratings are only valid for three years.

        Makers of budget models do not want their model retested to renew the rating because the system after 2020 (I think) puts more emphasis on driver safety aids. If it's a disposable buzzbox without lane-keeping, blindspot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, tyre pressure monitoring, etc it won't rate well even if the crash tests come out OK.

        So there are now a lot of bottom-of-the-makers-range models - including Japanese ones - being sold without an ANCAP rating.

        A quick google shows the MG3 - the smallest and cheapest model - had a 3 star rating before the rating expired. Not great, but not the old 1 star Chery either.

      Or it could be expensive given how crap those MG3s are. I drove one once - it was awful.

      I'd rather spend $19k on a 3 year old used car from a much nicer brand.

              @U30004: Some cars with 50k on it is barely run in. Still better than an MG3.

        Yeah I'd go for something like a used i30. Good bang for buck and they have decent resale unlike this Chinese jink.

      • TheLurker on 31/10/2023 - 21:09

        An unpopular view, but I blew a radiator in my Forester in January. Hired an MG3 for a fortnight at 11:30pm in a country town. Have to admit after 2500km I really enjoyed it, with decent (for class) power and low fuel use. The tech was decent too. I've been an avid avoider of cheap chinese cars but reckon they're finally getting things worked out. Not sure I trust a Great Wall for my next 4x4 build but price is tempting…

      MG3 is very old, at it's core it's a car from 2011, just with some minor facelifts/updates.
