I noticed this at a my High School reunion in South Africa. They have traded the "Bakkie" for the Aussie term "Utility" and here his the top of the range, the Chevrolet Ute Force. Should sell well over here as the Commodore ute replacement. It even comes with Bow Tie badges.

A bit of inbreeding with a Suzuki Mighty Boy as well!

Certainly weird body proportions. And the wheels don't seem to fit the arches... or maybe vice versa?
These shoes look more size appropriate...

Love that they offer 5 years warranty for that rubbish over there but Holden and Ford can't be bothered with anything more than 3 years here.
