As a vehicle design and test engineer I've long revered the Tatra for its innovative design. I saw my first vehicle 'in the metal' in 1990 during a brief visit to Czechoslovakia (as it was then) and since I have crawled under several during a longer visit to the Czech Republic.
I don't know how the costs work out but if you need a vehicle that is robust then there are few capable of standing up to the arduous conditions.
