MEN Klassisch, 1990 176X
The 1990 MEN 176X, actually a rebranded ACA Ecoflow from 1979. Soon after the Solidarity movement succeeded in removing the Communists from the Polish government and the economy became less restricted, MEN was forced to rapidly modernize their fleet made of almost entirely aged soviet vehicles. They began negotiations with several other companies to borrow tech and import vehicles, the first of these deals to bear fruit was with ACA to import old Ecoflow vans, and re badge them as MEN vans.
Changes from the ACA ecoflow to the MEN 176X include changing the 440 V8 to run on 80 octane Soviet fuel, adding a standard 4WD system with locking differentials, an offroad skidplate to protect from the damaged roads, as well as larger, offroad tires and raised suspension to deal with the potholes. The vehicle was very thirsty, only getting 8MPG, however it served as a halfway between a standard small utility vehicle and a much larger Lorry.

MEN Klassisch, 1260X 31th Anniversary Edition
To Celebrate the 31th anniversary of the Polish People’s Republic, the Soviet Agitprop department commissioned MEN trucking company to celebrate the occasion with a special edition 1260X, initially pitched as a more sporty, exciting and prestigious model of the original 1260X, however it quickly became watered down and the only marginal differences would see the light of day, such as 4 horsepower over the standard edition, 31 vs 27, twin stainless steel exhausts despite only one being functional, and decorative steel wheel covers. Also the 31th special badging. All 31th Anniversary models come standard with 4WD and locking differentials, both optional on the standard car.

MEN Klassisch, 1986 Urbvan LD.
For nearly the entirety of its existence, workers in the eastern bloc had little choice other than the MEN vans and trucks. However, during the late 70s, more and more began turning to imported vans from China and other socialist countries. To combat this, more funding was given to MEN to develop a new Urbvan and keep the manufacturing industry afloat. However, as the Soviet involvement in Afghanistan developed, funding was shifted away from the Urbvan project and toward vehicles suitable for the conflict. The end result was the Urbvan LD, after almost every corner had been cut to get it to production.
It used a 3.2L 6 Cyllinder engine with much more power than any predecessor. 112 Horsepower. And the MEN engineers (Or Mengineers) were forced to reuse the existing 3 speed manual to save on costs. It had solid axle suspension all around, in part due to save development costs, in further part to handle the tough, poorly maintained roads. All Urbvan LDs were equipped with 4WD with transfer cases to give the engine more punch when needed.
Function-wise, the Urbvan LD was acceptable. However complaints of refinement, break downs and poor build quality, the issues that drove up the popularity of imports in the first place, were not addressed. Most who purchased the Urbvan LD did so out of nationalistic defiance, and probably would have had a certain song about a siege playing on the radio, had the van come with one as standard…
