Random North Korean cars

Lada Niva 2131 police car.  A four door Niva exists?

Nice guy Kim with a Hongqi(?).

  2. @motoringconbrio: That was surreal. At first, I thought it belonged to the spoiled son of a North Korean general. But that video camera the occupant was holding makes me think they're not from North Korea. Maybe it was an obscure rally put together by overseas Chinese from Singapore/Hong Kong/Malaysia?

  3. That's not a Hongqi but a GAZ M-12 ZIM.
