Well I'll be buggered! The first Japanese car I buy and now I find it was made in China. :-[
Whatever next - Dundee cake made in Swansea?  ;)

Almost all of the small Japanese cars have been moved outside of Japan for export models to the UK:

  • Jazz - China
  • Micra - UK but going to India in the future
  • Yaris - France
  • Mazda2 - Now made in Japan but the old model was built in Spain alongside the Ford Fiesta/Fusion
  • Suzuki Swift & SVX - Hungary
  • Mitsubishi Colt - Holland (the Nedcar plant which used to make the Volvo 300/DAF cars)

It's difficult to find anything NOT made in China these days. Quality should be fine. No way would Honda comprimise their reputation which is for superb quality.

I would't mind so much if it was sold at "Chinese" pricing, but we're still being asked to pay the price as if it was Japanese built!
