  The 1970 Beetle of American’s John and Brett Layzell is third, over a minute adrift, with Garrick Staples and Hayden Burvill and their 1969 marque in fourth with a total of 7h 38m 11s - a minute and a half ahead of the 1965 Porsche 911 of Peter Lovett and Tim Smith. Car 100, the 1973 Holden pick-up, crewed by Peter St George and David Gainer is fifth.

  It's very quiet on the move, rides well and has a comfortable interior with a quality finish that's on par with Volkswagen's car range. "The load area itself comes lined as standard and like the rest of the car it feels well finished and robust enough to withstand every day abuse.

  Curios: British Leyland Safety Research Vehicles 25 Apr 2014 (News)
  Mounting the thick rubber bumpers low down brought two advantages: firstly, if the car ran into the side of another, the point of impact would more likely be in the sill area rather the more vulnerable doors; and were the car to hit a pedestrian, the low point of impact would tend to result in the unfortunate soul being lifted onto the bonnet rather than thrown forward into the car’s path.

  ” exclaimed Handler, and the name stuck.  The next question was what would people buy.

  A rugged winter weather solution - Lada Niva 1 Sep 2011 (News)
  Despite all of these rather major drawbacks, which would in normal circumstances utterly blight a modern car, it’s entirely forgivable in the Niva. It’s an old design, it’s cheap, and it’s extremely capable in a utilitarian sort of way.

  Auction Prices Continue to Rise 1 Feb 2002 (News)
  Competition was as fierce as the storms howling through the halls at BCA Blackbushe today. And not merely for late, low mileage cars. Even ten-year-old part-exchanges were making top money. In the circumstances I'd have expected the super-clean 46,000 mile 98S BMW 318iS in the photo to start at around £8,000.
