My mate drove one to western Mongolia about 10 years ago. Its still out there apparently. Had a nissan NA diesel engine (2.7?) retrofitted which didn't really work with the existing auto box, any kind of seriously steep incline would result in the engine over revving and not really going anywhere (weak torque convertor I guess). Even more miserable on fast roads (more than 50mph), miserable on fuel BUT its saving grace was it wasn't bad on gravel roads/light off road.
