Re: Looking to buy a 1980s UAZ 469

I think your best bet is to hunt for replacement parts in Eastern Europe. E.g. https://shop.uazbg.com/

Renting a UAZ 452 in Dagestan [German]

Two German videos introducing the self-drive vacations by Dagestan.Reise in Dagestan. I like how Andreas shows the car and all equipment that comes with it. It might be interesting for owners who want to convert a UAZ 452 into a basic camper van. Along the way he does give a few pointers about the c...

Retro Review: '94 Russian UAZ Sport Utility and Light truck [English]

A video review by MotorWeek of the UAZ 31512 Sport and the UAZ 3303 Flat Bed Truck in 1994! It looks like they digitalized it from some videotape they did find in some corner in the storage room. 😃

Nothing new, but entertaining to watch.

Re: ZMZ-409 Engine video [Russian]

Thanks for sharing! I did came across this video a few months ago and it contains a very detailed look of the engine and its weaknesses. It would be nice if someone with more experience can explain how to improve/fix these flaws.

A (Polish) video demonstrating the UAZ Hunter (Expedition edition) off-road capabilities. A UAZ Patriot also features in this video.

A (German) YouTube channel documenting the build of a camper van based on the UAZ 3909 Expedition. A lot of interesting videos about the build, the common "issues" with this model and his travels.

UAZ Hunter Review by PART OUT [English]

A short (English) review of a 2017 UAZ Hunter with some modifications. In short: he's not raving about the car, but he definitely thinks it's fun to drive off-road.

I'm not a fan of the 33" tires, but I can imagine others might think about this differently.
