NIVA POWER! -THE BEST-

[2hisk0]

this is why russian cars are the best. they are just made to drive, no computers or anything. just push the pedal and go and it will do everything you need it to.

i bet BMWs, Mercedes, and hummers would have a tough time doing that, or even going half way up.

@xevnoc i agree, not everything russian built is crap. and this was an all russian design!!

@slimv29 UAZ Jeeps are awesome. There is a reason that you see only UAZ vans/jeeps and KAMAZ trucks in Mongolia :)

@rog19581986 Rust is a huge problem on Nivas. Good thing is that the steel used is as thick as the armor on an M1A1 :) The Niva wasn't built to look pretty, just to go. Learn how to weld in patches and you're ok (the Niva as an educational device :)

They did not have a good reputation in Québec, Canada. the main problem was rust after 1 year due to the salty road during winter. But they were a real kind of beast for the price at that time. They were a real success for the first 2 or 4 years. But as the other cars in Québec, the only solution is oil treatment and electric rustproof system. Salutation to Russia great people doing a lot with nothing like here in Québec.

That is a real off-road vehicle.

And probably the best car Russians ever made.

@TheFallenWon

actually, they are still made and are quite popular throughout europe. they have also made a larger version now with 5 doors as well as the 3 door version seen here.

they are actually very good vehicles. the reason they were pulled off of the north american and UK markets was that production was slower than demand and so they decided to just sell in russia.
