The automotive world...
The automotive world is in shock after one of the most influential men in sports car design was killed in a road accident.
The Asian firm"s Landwind...
The Asian firm"s Landwind off-roader bears a startling similarity to the Vauxhall - and it"s already on sale in Europe. In a statement, the US giant said: "The Landwind has no connection whatsoever with GM, and its resemblance to the Frontera is a matter our legal team is looking at."
The Landwind costs around í‚á£10,000, and some of GM"s German dealers are already selling the vehicle. Competition laws allow them to do so, and the UK could follow suit. GM continued: "Vauxhall franchises are free to sell any vehicle they wish under block-exemption rules, but we will obviously discourage them from marketing this car."
At the moment the Landwind is only available in left-hand drive, so it will have limited appeal for buyers in the UK.
