General I just realised where most of the knock off parts come from .....

Its the Peri (Great Wall) Chinese Panda ripoff...
Took me a while to click, but that's where all the suspension arms and shocks etc must be coming from.... they are probably not too bad.. I think the engine is different (is it a Mitsubishi that they ripped?) but the rest they just ripped from the Fiat Panda. I prefer some of the interior as well on the Peri, some nice little touches.
There should be a takeaway parts shop on every corner soon....
Certainly looks like drive shafts, brake parts, hubs, suspension, shocks etc are all from there..They probably have left the fiat numbers on the casting when they copied it

Everything is fake, I no longer supply 'genuine' chargers because they are all fake, so to avoid the fakes I buy fakes. E.g I buy directly from the manufacture of replacement parts so I know what I am getting.

Fake car parts are rife and the better the brand the more chance of it being a fake.
