All about Unimogs - old and new 'Mogs driven

Ah, the Unimog. Created in the late 1940s as a more advanced, habitable and faster alternative to the basic agricultural vehicles of the time, during the past three-quarters of a century it has grown and become ever more versatile and capable.
To chart just how much it has changed, we've driven both: a mid-1950s 401 model which is still pretty close to how it was originally designed - save for modifications that made it easier to build.
Then we've tried the most off-roady version of the very latest Unimog, the UHE extreme off-roader. Woof. How good is it off-road? How true is it to the ideals the 'Mog was designed for? And what happened in the meantime? Find out here as Matt Prior charts the Unimog's path.
