Whaddya mean it looks like a Hummer H2?
No sir-ski, this is the Gaz Tiger 2 all the way from Russia. Any resemblance to a Hummer is purely coincidental, comrade.
However, there is one similarity to the Hummer, because the Gaz is already in service with the Russian army and the car's makers are now selling luxury-equipped versions for wealthy Muscovites to intimidate other traffic.
Power comes from a 197bhp six-cylinder turbodiesel engine that powers all four wheels.
A huge transmission tunnel inside the cabin means the Tiger's cabin bears an uncanny likeness to the Hummer, right down to the woeful passenger space.
Still, for around £33,000, you too could be the talk of the town in Red Square.
