the clear market leader, currently commanding a 50% market share. It's cheap to buy (£12,000), easy to repair, and there are 1.8 million of them trundling along Russia's roads.

The Gazelle Next is £4,200 dearer than the standard Gazelle (which remains in production), but for the extra money van buyers get a far more modern van with a 120hp Cummins diesel engine, ZF manual transmission, and a three-year, 150,000km warranty.
