I’m at the dealership, I came to test drive it. My partner and I were both impressed by the car especially the price. The engine lacks refinement but the gear changes are smooth. The infotainment system is useless, I’ll have to look for a better aftermarket replacement. It feels like driving an SUV mostly but I have a feeling it won’t do too well above 120 km/h, it’s also a bit thirsty (10.4 l/100km). I’m buying it. I’ll update you guys when I do.

Greetings from Mexico. I am looking forward to getting my T8 delivered sometime soon in the next weeks. Your video was quite helpful. BTW your surroundings look a lot like Baja California my home state here in 🇲🇽

It's great to know our reviews are helpful to viewers as far afield as Mexico! The video was filmed outside a town called Hartebeespoort in the North-West province. In summer it's much greener and actually looks completely different! We hope your T8 is serving you well and we hope you keep watching.

Bought one. Can't find a fuse map or spare parts list for the love of god. Disabling airbags seems impossible. Roof is mostly kept up by velcro adhesive strips, which half collapsed after 3 days from purchase. Did wait 8 months for replacement, still no news from the dealership. Guess the warranty policy is "buy it yourself on taobao". Mike of the onboard bluetooth call management broke 6 months in (used it 4 times). Manufacturer refused to clarify whether sim/e-sims or trackers are onboard. Amongst the design features: Water in puddles splash back high up into the windshield making the visibility near zero. Onboard screen at night reflects on the rear glass through the rearview mirror. Rear parking sensors lost calibration in less than 3 months. Do not dare to accelerate even slightly during a turn in wet/slightly wet paved road as on 2 wheels drive, with "high grip" (whatever that means) tires on, it slides out of control and demands formula1 reflexes to countersteer and save it from crash. It surely does not feel like it has much grip in general and I can only imagine what will happen in case of a blown tire or whatever (nothing good). I am used to vans, and it is my first pickup, and first rear wheel driving vehicle in general. Even in comparison to tall vans however, it seems unstable to me. Still, maybe others can share their impressions, especially in comparison with other pickups in the market, and let me know whether the instability is more or less standard on this kind of vehicle.

@@bobafett1129 Well I picked it yesterday and drove around most of the day. :) 1st gear is very short but your typical diesel. I've pulled off in second gear no issues. The interior looks really good with the exception of some of the "knobs" that feels a bit "cheap" to the touch. Not a train smash. The touch screen is very cool. The kids and I were watching a movie last in the car but the system does not allow you to do that while the vehicle is in motion. The "glue" comment mentioned by the gentlemen? I don't have that at all. It smells like a new bakkie! :) I've only had the car for a day but thus far I am VERY happy with it not to mention the price and what you get. Is it worth the bucks? I'd say HELL YES! PS: Mine looks exactly like the one in this video but I had an "armadillo" fitted.
