The best 4x4xAmphib....
« on: 29 December 2010, 21:03:43 »
What with the recent weather I've been browsing the world wide interweb looking at 4x4's and couldn't believe this one. How much fun could you have in this?.....

Shame the Gibbs is a wind up, it could be a LOT of fun.

SB I don't think the Aton will take off over here. Especially with the history of Rusky built cars' reputations previously released in the UK ;D

Never owned one ( wasnt that desperate) but a lad I knew did own one and for some reason he always got a load of stick about his skip on wheels  ;D

A mate of mine had one of the fast back Skoda's, only a 1.6 but it would absolutely pee all over my 2.2 princess! He was forever getting ribbed as the rear screen was heated so we could keep our hands warm whilst pushing it ;D ;D

Neither have I, though used one once as a courtesy car and was surprisingly ok. Was taken out for a drive in the Lada 4x4, what a cracking vehicle far better than my Landrover at the time, or perhaps a braver driver..... ;) ;) ;)

A company I used to work for installed equipment in fields, so had a Lada Niva Cossack as a pool car. It was surprisingly agile, relatively comfortable if slow, and capable off road.
It was sold to one of my Engineers who still has it, and now has a 2.0 Ford Pinto engine in it, which apparently was a common swap as the engine mounts all line up!!

Pig ugly to look at, but functional. The "Cossack" package gave it alloys, leather seats, power steering, and a towbar as standard, and a bull bar too, all for £4k.  NEW!
