Personally I actually think the Lada Niva is quite beautiful

[@afrog2666]

I knew a guy with a Niva, it looks allright, easy to work on, never failed to start and gets around just fine. It`s like a budget Gelenderwagen lol..

[@vardukaspavardukas4062]

Try travel in Niva 100+ km and you will change your mind. After 1000 km you'll have to repair that car. I'm Lithuanian and live in Lithuania. So, I've born and lived half of my life in USSR. That was terrible state and it's cars were terrible as well. Post Soviet countries know those cars and almost never buy them. We are ensured by our own experience that old second hand cars made in western countries are much better than new Russian car. Sorry for my bad English.

[@unglaubiger5645]

@@vardukaspavardukas4062 I visit my parents a few times a year. They live about 400km from my home and I use my Lada Niva to get there. I can´t complain about anything. It´s not a fast car, so I drive on the right lane behind some truck. I bought it new in 2014. It´s the best car I ever owned. It has now over 60000km and the only thing that broke so far was one wheel bearing. So far it´s pretty reliable and cheap to drive, because it runs on a propane/butane mixture

Travelled into the CIS states in the early nineties and had the pleasure of travelling in a few of these vehicles. When it came to off road vehicles and trucks the former USSR was way ahead of the rest of the world. Thank you for a really interesting series of video's

[@TheLpd1]

Almost all of those vehicles I saw I was like: "shit, that's amazing"

[@iliaslamari7315]

Communist vehicles are great and are underestimated in many Western countries. They may not be super fast or stylish, but they do their work under all circumstances. Today, many of them still travel from the Soviet era. Quality and reliability. I'm proud on that and that is not something like the Chinese vehicles of today. Because the options it does't have, aren't abel to break! 😉🖒 for the Netherlands! Keep up the communistic stuff!

[@michaelkael5192]

That's true unless said vehicle was made on Friday or Monday and their first owner did what they for some reason forgot to do in factory. All these cars are great today (I like them, too), because all the bad ones were already scraped.

[@pjotrslanina1403]

I also love these communist vehicles. In some way, they are stylish. Robust and reliable. I love that.

[@pjotrslanina1403]

Also the Aro looks nice and reminds me why I love my Land rover 130 LHD double cab.

[@Steve-sq6ck]

Same here

[@aussiebloke609]

Great video! I've always had a soft spot for the Lada Niva - my brother used to have one when I was younger. My only problem with them was the front suspension...the control arms hang quite a bit lower than the rear axles (solid rear end), so if you're in deep muddy ruts, the front would slide along on the control arms with no real weight on the front tyres, while the rear had clearance and would still be pushing you along. Not a big problem...unless you need to get out of those ruts, which was sometimes impossible without aid from a shovel. And the lack of steering stops, so if you suddenly went to full lock - say, if you clipped a large rock and were going just a little too fast - it would immediately shatter the steering box. (Ask me how I know!) These are the few areas that the Suzuki Sierra (Suzuki Samurai in the US) had over it, as Suzuki used a solid axle for both front and rear, and had built-in steering stops. Both were surprisingly good in the rough stuff, and often embarrassed much larger 4X4s...Toyota Landcruiser, Jeep Wrangler, Nissan patrol, etc. :-)

[@StriKerMilitaryVehicles]

I am suprised and happy to see one of my videos on your channel. Continue! Greets from Germany :)

[@sollly32]

What about the Romanian Dac, Roman Diesel, the Hungarian Csepel, Raba, rhe Eastern German Ifa, Robur or the Polish Star?

[@Alorand]

Well you knew about them, so they would not fit in a video about vehicles you might not know. /s

[@akoshutoczki3284]

Sounds like an idea for the next video. Good one as well

All of these vehicles were a rare sight in Romania... mainly because we had our own Romanian made version of everything on this list haha Except the ARO... of course.

Zdravím, vozy Tatra a Praga nejsou pýchou socialismu, ale nejlepším vysvědčením práce lidí ve firmách Tatra Kopřivnice a Praga Vysočany!! Také vozy Avia vyráběné podle licence Saviem v Praze - Letňanech odvedly kus skvělých výkonů. Pro terénní účely armády , lesníků a podobných též skvělé GAZ 69 a UAZ 469 z ruských měst Gorkij/ Nižní Novgorod a Uljanovsk. Také vozy Kamaz z Moskvy a Lada Niva jsou dobře známé. A dobrý kus práce jistě odvedly zde také uvedené Škoda 706MTS, známé pod názvy Mates nebo Trambus (první sklápěcí s trambusovou kabinou z ČSSR. V závěru uvedených GAZ 66 se moc do ČSSR nedovezlo, za to rumunské ARO 240 bylo u nás běžně, jako novější náhrada zmíněných ruských GAZ69 a UAZ 469. Pěkná ukázka skvělých terénních vozidel zejména z ČSSR a Ruska.

[@0pposite221]

The Lada Niva has a surpising amount of fans in all parts of Germany. Doesn't matter if east or west Germany. There is even a Lada dealership near me in the middle of bumf_ck nowhere in Hesse. Additionally, Lada has announced a special Niva exclusively for the German market.

Keep up the good work my friend. Seeing as you did such a good job on the chrysler engines and detroit diesel engines maybe do one with unusual engines made by ferrari, or the volkswagen group. Engines made by a particular company that are not well known, unusual layouts, against what a particular company used to make. Much love from Ireland (y)

Finally someone shedding some light on ARO, I remember how daddy used to tell me stories of how his countryside relatives had one of these beasts, it was like joyride for em at the time being. I'm really proud off all the Romanian outcomes. What we've achieved even with the other "based upon" vehicles. There are some of em that ever reached States and beat the Jeep Wrangler in off-road races I think 4 times and the UAZ too. It nearly was sold in the US. But I never understood why it didn't make it. Not exactly. But there are people who actually have those things there but most of em are actually Romanians importing them but even Americans actually owning and lauded those cars for how superior they are against harsh terrain. Really wish I could own one myself in one day. And aggressive car to beat two giant very well know cars. Only to show how superior it was at the time. Yet as gentle and docile as you'd expect it to be. But they are so rare nowadays. I used to see em as a kid but even then I barely had a sight of em. But if I'm not wrong I think it was built as a response to the Austrian Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen/Class. Yes the G-Wagen is the only car I think that it's production is in Austria to this day.

There was a 4.5 liter ARO (a Plymouth Barracuda 275 Cui V8 engine with 170hp in stock form - 200+ hp tuned by Cosworth), driven by Gerard Sarrazin, that won the 1982 Rally of Island, won the 1983 Rally of Tunisia, won the 1983 and 1984 Rally Of The Pharaohs (Egypt), and also winner of 1985 Paris Dakar Rally. All victories were at it's vehicle class. In Romania, AROs are still used by Off-road enthusiasts, and, like the little Lada Niva, beating other more renown off-road vehicles.

Actually Škoda and Tatra aren´t Russian at all. Those were made in Czechoslovakia and Tatra 815 is made to this day, in Czech Republic and also they have amazing offroad abilities :D

[@imrekalman9044]

Tatras are the kings of truck trials! :D Ages ago I saw a video of an 813 in a s-shaped ditch, it just couldn't fit, so the drivers looked at each other, switched to lowest gear (out of 20) with all dif locks on, and dig a new ditch. The judge on the side was like: "hehe, hehe, hehe... WTF!?!"

[@catjudo1]

Aw, I was hoping to see those crazy Soviet screw drive vehicles somewhere, but what was there was very cool! Great work!

[@apismellifera1000]

Those are pretty cool and I love going off road in the mud.

[@petrhavlicek393]

Já, jako zapřísáhlý podporovatel nové demokratické doby nemůžu než že budu vždy hájit řekněme stará vozidla TATRA, LIAZ, Praga V3S apod. Těmto vynikajícím vozidlům a jejich konstruktérům bych chtěl vyslovit obdiv.

[@Kraky1998]

Hi, love your videos, great work you put in to them, thumbs up to you, keep them comming.

[@ivancocco4822]

Nice content dude keep up!

[@phils4634]

The Lada Niva was a pretty solid design! You didn't mention the waterproof alternator and water-tight headlights - overall a pretty amazing little light truck, for a very low outlay.

[@mindkiller76]

Great videos, greetings from Ukraine.

[@ldbrn11]

I'm your neighbour, so I already knew about these machines. But still a fascinating video, as they always are. Keep up the good work!!!

[@C2H5OHist]

These videos are WAY better than the titles would suggest. My usual rule of thumb is no vid starting with a number is worth watching..

[@Hodard]

Where is Kraz 255 ?

[@iliaslamari7315]

J-Man Hodard; The 255 was manufactured at the KrAZ plant and that is North Korea. And they have a special kind of Communism....

[@Hodard]

KrAZ-255 - a Soviet six-armed military truck with a capacity of 7.5 tons developed by KrAZ in the second half of the 1960s. These trucks were used in the Soviet Army. wikipedia

[@stephen9869]

I concur....I can only hope he is dedicating a whole video to it!

[@AlexGR21.HELLAS]

J-Man Hodard Where is ZIL131, URAL4320?

[@simonrichard9873]

Where are polish utility vehicles like a Nysa, Jelcz, Star, Żuk or DDR vehicle named Robur? :)

[@averagejo2462]

All of them are my favorite!

[@frantisekslipka9651]

Most of the vehicles, which you showed, were born in Czech republic (former Czechoslovakia). It is a pitty that you didn't mentioned. Nice video anyway! :)

[@MrRockydee07]

The Visio Racer is only one who s have my subscription. For me is it one of best videos about cars. So good luck with next videos. I sending greating from Czech rep.

[@wojciechostrowski3686]

Where is star 66?

[@m4jst3r32]

Nie znam się ale Star 66 to nie jest prawie to samo co Gaz 66?

[@1I3b]

Tak samo jak Czechy i Słowacja ... prawie to samo.

[@ianmcass]

Never head the term "Communistic" before but apparently it's valid English. We'd normally say "Communist"

[@VisioRacer]

So many people complained when I used the term 'communist' instead before.

[@ianmcass]

Really? Obviously not English people then! :D

[@RustedCroaker]

Communist - а noun; Communistic - an adjective.

[@LeSarthois]

It make sense, tho. The countries that built those vehicles were (so-called) communists, the people that make and owned them were (possibly) communists, but the vehicles themselves don't have political thoughs. They just are. "My car is communist." Does it sing the Internationale on worker's day?

[@ianmcass]

We'd say "communist vehicle" to mean "vehicle of the communist". "Communistic" is not a word we'd use. As @rust says, that's an adjective which would describe the vehicle itself as communist which as @LeSathois says is not possible - the vehicle doesn't care about politics.

[@ayylmao8783]
