It’s only a 380,young lad driving it.A big adventure 
When you concider that someone drove a fully loaded Atki Borderer form the UK to Pakistan, St Petersburg to the UK in a Renault Permium isn’t to bad.
Sea-road have them pulling B Doubles round Tasmania.

They used to have them in Tashkent and Kaz as well, sort of like a hazard warning light thing, but only for loading and unloading road side. We were pulled up on it a few times but once we explained we only delivered to the China border transfer station we were all right, they still tryed to have cash out of us though.
I saw one bloke in eastern Kaz whos truck had been blown into a ditch had his roof lights flashing away, it took 3 of us straight bared together, and with snow chains to get him out.

Yes,I’ve seen them,cracking shots
cheers! the Russians are one of the most interesting to me because of all the old junk they run esp exported stuff that never gets repainted
i was pleased with how this came out, taken a couple of years ago at Kappelskar docks, Sweden, waiting to ship to Finland
