reavo2k9 20 Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 if you want one that bad i hope you have arms like mike tyson to steer it ?they are heavy to steer and i dont think they handle the road that well either a lad i no put a peugeot 205 diesel engine straight in then ran it on cherry he got stuck a few times but it would go most places with ease ,atb finding one get a suzuki sj instead much more practical for shooting with fold down windscreen or soft top Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dave1372 83 Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 I had a mate that had one, and he thought it was brilliant, and he used to give it a really hard time, but like most things Eastern european they may not have much street cred or looks but they a hard wearing and designed that even when they break down they are simple to repair. Good luck. Post some pics when you get one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Waz 4,252 Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 Had one, was great for fields at night, only trouble was keeping the carb adjustment,, it just wouldnt be happy for very long. & permanent 4 wheel drive so on long drives to 'places' was juicy.

(tax, test, insurance, v5) they then give you a little card with your details on so you don't need to bring them all again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
