On the old pinzes, what parts broke most often? (from your perspective as a welder?) They have kind of a reputation for rugged reliability, so you'd have to use them pretty hard to break stuff!

@@TristanMorrow only parts we used to make for spares were roof parts just where they were thin to keep weight down, other than that they were pritty bullet proof until we started makeing the armoured vision the "vector" adding 4 tonnes to the original running gear killed it

@@case150284 Thank you! Interesting ...by the way, which is heavier, 4 tonnes of feathers or 4 tonnes of armoured plate? X-)

Consider restarting the production in Ukraine or Hungary!

You can come replace the rusty spots on my 710k.

Yeah, if u were a logi you could jump into a pinzgauer or unimog and stay warm and dry.

None of these were used in Yugoslavia. Yugoslav People's Army had 2.5L petrol models from the 1970s. Any of them is prohibitively expensive to upkeep and maintain due to lack of spare parts.

after it got sellt to BAE it was produced in GB

@@Kullioking It was actually brought to the UK by Automotive Tecknik

Same with me only saw one in 30 years and it was parked at the local wallmart . The downside is the 6x6s get terrible milage evenon the diesel models .

Good lord remove kebab. Your avatar sent me down a memory trip.

Yes, that´s right. First invented and produced in Austria. Puch is an austrian company.

Me too:)

Starboard. Port is left. Four letters in both, easy way to remember

The best 4x4 and 6x6 vehicle

MIC does not have logic or values, only greed.

+Randy Hartono That's a Haflinger, not a Pinzgauer. Lovely little truck, though

Basically because of the rise of IAD's in the field of combat. To armour plate them made them too heavy for the existing running gear and chassis.

@@harveysmith100 I Do realise that Harvey but why stop making them, they are a reliable vehicle and a good off-road vehicle, I'm sure farmers, and people who like off roading would buy them or convert into a small caravette as some people have done.

@@davidphillips8416 I agree David, I would love to see them being made again. Unfortunately the licence to manufacture them is owned by Bae Systems. They make defence equipment. In their world, as soon as the military didn't want them they stopped production. Personally I thing the Pinz is the best pure off roader ever built.

@@harveysmith100 yes Harvey your right. Shame really.

@@domashniyesamodelki8334 но очг требовательная к обслуживанию. Главная проблема - вой мотора, КПП и бортовых на ходу. Быстро начинает сапунить масло из картеров бортовых редукторов, после вытекания масла редуктор быстро умирает, а новый стоит дорого и очень долго ждать доставку. КПП просто так не заменишь, её картер является частью хребтовой рамы. Не прижилась эта конструкция в России, хотя ей очень нужны кошерные внедорожники и вездеходы. УАЗы и газы оказались более практичными и надёжными, а по совсем непроходимому бездорожью в России ездят на гусеницах ГТ и на Витязях.

Ikr, lol.

humvee wins with pinz in....weight,armor,and biggest tires....means that pinz go way beyond humvees

I have a 710K ... it gets way better fuel economy than that, even off road. Your 25 liters would take me more like 160km mixing on and off road. That is about as good as my Toyota 4runner mixing on and offroad.

agree with you but you forget something,in army you dont care for economy,in army you care about safety and off road capabilities,lets say that you are in the front line and you need to pick one of the 3,you pick the light and fast pinz or the slow and heavy armored humvee? ...i pick the one that have 4 inches thick bullet proof window

***** 718k Pinzgauer´s are very rare, even here in Europe. Only about 500 were ever made ;) so today the only one for sale in the hole world is this one here www.gebrauchtwagen.at/detailansicht.php?id_fahrzeug=5184269 price is ok for the good condition and its older then 25 years so you can import it to the USA ;)

Being 6x6 u might need a cdl. To drive on the streets. I love have one too.

j lin, I don't think so. Especially if you aren't using it for commercial purposes. You can get US army 5 ton 6×6 and you don't need a cdl

@@scouttroop291 no cdl needed for 718k or higher, cdl rated by weight,and even cdl class b

Not anymore. The last manufacturer was Autmototove Technik Limited in Guildfor, England, now defunct

the Haflinger and Pinzgauer where designed by Erich Ledwinka, the son of Hans Ledwinka the designer of the Tatra.

VW 2.5 litre 5 cylinder turbodiesel

+Max Maruszewski no, production is stopped entirely they are not very fuel efficient, yet reliable and sturdy luke barely any other truck trucks that can be compared to this type are the volvo 202 and 303, also the mercedes "unimog" is a modern truck that is in the same ligue

And closest you can get is toyota land cruiser 70

I bought my 710K for us$13000... the same I paid for my subaru. Only the diesels are expensive.

bernard_hossmoto They are not solid portal axles. Pinzgauer has a special independent suspension design (both front and rear) with double coil spring suspension. It has a unique massive central tranamission tunnel which also serves as a part of the suspension. The entire transmission and suspension design was optimized for high speed driving on uneven terrain while having maximum ground clearance at the same time. These vehicles can travel so fast on uneven ground and still maintain good ground contact, that most typical all terrain passenger vehicles (for example Land Rover Defender) would lose control at such speeds and swerve off the desired trajectory. This ability is why the vehicle carries the name of a thoroughbred Austrian horse species.

bernard_hossmoto P.S. To amend my answer - they are portal axles, but not solid axles. They are portal halfaxles in a special independent suspension design.

@@NihadH Just like the ones Tatra has?

Fred van Viegen I do not know about that.

@@ikkeennietjij It has a very similar set up to Tatra, the tube chassis that houses the drive shaft, the independent suspension and portals.

No. Not anymore. How very stupid: BAE buys the factory and rights to produce the vehicle and then decides that it does not make sense to do it. Welcome to the world of Big Corp.

Now our enemies have developed a love of I.E.D explosives, these (and most Landrovers) have been replaced with more 'mine friendly' vehicles.

Production is very expensive.

Yes it was build and produced by Styer-Puch as e.g. Puch/Mercedes G in Graz Austria but the main constructor was Czech who left ocupied czehoslovakia by sssr Mr. Ledwinka and he was son of another genius who disign Tatras before and after ww2 including a Tatra 97. This model was copied by F. Porsche to made a vw beattle. And btw name Styer Puch come from region styer and from founder name Puch and he was Slovenian

حسبت اني الوحيد اللي لاحظ لول

I am guessing you drove the water cooled six cylinder. It was a VW turbo diesel, what was it, a 2.5?

Harvey Smith yes a 2.5 Td, would have been early to mid 90’s . Great vehicle when lightly loaded, we used the 4x4 for recon and FOB , the 6x6 was a light gun tractor but when laden was just under powered. To be honest it was a while back and I have no idea what engine is used now. Virtually unstoppable with all the diff locks engaged.

Thanks for the info. Production has stopped as far as my knowledge goes. British Aerospace (Bae') took over production but stopped a while back. Up until the end it was the same VWTd engine. I just didn't know the displacement. Sounds underpowered, yes, I have a 2.4 in a LandCruiser and that is underpowered! The Pinz is something special.

@@harveysmith100 2.5td isn't it a 5 cylinder?

@@BobDerEine1 The later models had the tdi engine which was a 5 cylinder, the earlier ones had a six cylinder D24t and D24tic

Chen hsuan-chou No, it is no longer made

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, great off-road vehicles.

I had a 712k with 4x4 Petrol engine designed for radio link. Then his factory price was 62000eu, 6x6 is more expensive. Extremely terrain vehicle for extreme conditions. Worth every eu for what it offers. And more of these prices.

Буханка лучше

Там нечему удивляться.

Independent suspension really helps

D' ARTICULATE A close run thing. Unimog better ground clearance and in some situations the larger wheels would help.

Clive Sinclair unimog is way more powerful but top speed on the road is half that. Unimog is more offroad but pinz is everything else and it does compete with uni. so pinz in my opinion is better

Better in which regard? It's stupid to say something is better than another, when these are total different animals: Pinzgauers are very small, 710 just over 4 meters, very light, roughly 3 ton. Unimogs today are ALL over 7.5 to category -- so how to compare? A truck with 2.3 meters height to a truck with 3 meters? A truck with 235/85-16 to a truck with 20“ wheels like 12.5“??? A Mercedes G even in military category had a 2.8l cdi engine and lot of power, a Pinzgauer 710 had roughly 80 HP. If you need to go “fast“ a Pinz is not an option. So in which regard is it better now?

Runs circles around slow unimogs, and small enough to fit on tight forest trails. I can drive my pinz 710k faster offroad than most unimogs can go onroad.

Yea . Agree . 😎

What does that mean in English?
