Part 2 of the UAZ Bukhanka Dutch MOT inspection.
Now the real fun starts underneath. We move under the van for the visual checks: drivetrain, gearbox area, suspension, steering parts, leaks, play and all the little things that can turn an APK inspection into a proper UAZ moment.
This kind of look underneath is also useful if you own a Bukhanka yourself. It gives you a better idea of what to check before inspection day, although the exact APK rules can depend on the age, registration and specific type of Bukhanka.
And yes, with a UAZ, there is always something to inspect, question or politely negotiate with.
