What lot of people don't realize is with Made in China products, you get exactly what you pay for. You can get the best quality in the world if you are willing to pay for it and you can also get the cheapest quality in the world, if you are on a shoestring. With mobile phones, China has now positioned itself as the premium quality manufacturer. Not just the iPhone but Huaweis are good examples. If you use a Huawei phone, you would know that the bloody thing just refuses to die (somewhat reminiscent of the old Nokias). Since my other personal interest is watches, did you know that there are Chinese-designed and Chinese-made watches which are valued more than Swiss brands like Tissot? On the other hand you can also find Chinese-made watches for less than a dollar. With the auto-industry however, China is not there yet. So MG ZS for now is a passable product. So are other Chinese cars. At least for now.

If you're unaware about the history of the car, a good point to start is a proper ATF change that involves draining the old fluid, removing the transmission oil pan and cleaning it, inspecting the valve body and replacing with new fluid. A good practice after buying a used car without a service history is to perform a full service without waiting for the next cycle.
