MUH?? My Dacia Duster was a clonky 4x4 that fell to bits as you drove along. It had three wheel studs on each wheel IIRC...

Bit disappointed it didn't show Pikes Peak....not surprising though with it being this years car and they haven't run it yet...
If you are anywhere remotely close to Pikes Peak, you have to drive it....it is an amazing , scary peice of road...about 12,000 ft you pass the tree line...the trees suddenly just don't exist anymore and it's all rocky and dusty and you find yourself looking down at the clouds.....awesome road...

Bloke who used to drive our digger at work had one, but it was more like Owelly's. A RWD pickup based on the FWD Renault 12 which suggested to me at the time 4wd was a fair possibility. But it was crap, the electrics were as bad (or worse!) as any Renault & it was never without some problem that did'nt stop it but made it a right jalopy. I accidently wrecked the bonnet & we fitted the one from a scrap Renault 12, but the pickup was red & the car yellow, you could spot it a mile away!

It probably did'nt share too many bits with the motor in that clip!
