The wikipedia entry for the UAZ 452 (van) and 469 (jeep-thingy) is kinda funny: "although the UAZ has proven to be a reliable 4x4, there have been a few problems with the car's reliability that have slightly hurt its reputation" <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UAZ> Sounds a lot like the Vanagon... reliable, but with reliability issues... -- John Bange '90 Vanagon - "Lastwagen" '90 Vanagon GL - "Wiesel" |
