And another new SUV in holland

Postby Ivan » Thu Oct 12, 2006 3:09 pm

Somebody tries a cheap SUV again after the Landwind disaster...

UAZ Tigr / Taigah.
Basically an updated UAZ jeep, same one as the Russian army has.

Don't expect much luxury inside for just 13000 euros.

Comes with
Alloy wheels
Optional LPG tank
Partial Cyryllic dashboard
Two separate fuel tanks (with two fillpoints, one on each side)

What happened to Chevrolet Niva?

While off-road performance should be great, Russian cars are usually very poor in quality. I don't know who in western Europe would buy a Communist death trap.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Chevy Niva isnt scheduled for export yet... and as they are still building the old Niva there is no need for the chevy one to be released on the european market

In the UK we have the same thing, "Chelsea Tractors". Chelsea is a posh and very flat part of London.

Well, Italian's prefer hatchback cars...Only SUV's I've seen are Hyundai Santa Fe's, Hyundai Tucson's, Toyota RAV4, Toyota Land Cruiser (both variations), Lexus RX300/400h, and the occasional Hummer ;)

In your part of the world Woodlouse, it would go something like this,

"Yer, you seen that new fangled tractor thing"


;D ;D
