I'd drive that

  1. It is a crying shame we can't buy and drive a simple, stout vehicle with out all the frills and 'puters and ssssaaafffitttyy crap on it. I accept the risk of getting into an accident and dying like a real man.

    1. In fact I have driven a UAZ ('Whazz") when I worked in the FSU except it was the model that resembled one of those old-style Land Cruisers. Not a bad little 4x4 except that one had to always fiddle with it, even when new. Quality was not a strong suit. They may still be making them; when I was there they were still building motorcycle-sidecar machines that were based on a WWII BMW design that they got as part of reparations.

    2. In fact there's one listed here: http://www.mortarinvestments.eu/products/jeeps,-trucks-a-bikes-3/uaz-469-96#currency=USD and one of those motorcycles too: http://www.mortarinvestments.eu/products/jeeps,-trucks-a-bikes-3/dnepr-ural-k-750-and-k-650-276#currency=USD I knew a couple of guys that picked up the bikes - they were about the same price as shown, cheap for something new.
