The Chinese are making strides when it comes to vehicle production, and this is evident in the cheap and cheerful LC. It looks good, its build quality is anything but horrible and it comes with an impressive list of features – as standard. However, this is a brand that does still need to prove itself. Will it prove to be reliable? Will the dealers provide good after-sales service? Will it have reasonable resale value? No-one can say. But we sure hope so.
