They are used as buses in Mongolia......as the "roads" are somewhat suspect!!!!!

Anybody doing the Mongolian rally will confirm that the are a god send when you car self destructs on their roads when trying to complete the rally.

Whoops, was not a UAZ 2206 - sorry

it is a UAZ 39625

I also like the colour options - http://www.uaz.ru/eng/models/commercial/39625/colors/



Andy - just read this about UAZ in Mongolia - http://www.uaz.ru/eng/about/news/?id=754

Looks like the best vehicle for their great road system.
