Vehicles in Nepal |
As in India, Vespas are common in Nepal. Christian's kind of country !
| The Asia Cuba |
| If Cuba is renowned for its surprising number of old American cars of the 50s, Nepal must surely qualify for being a heaven for Japanese cars of the 70s. |

|
Very common means of transportation : motorised and non-motorised 3 wheelers
|
| Overland vehicles |
| Whereas in China we did not once see another foreign registered vehicle, a relatively large number of people drive their own car to India and Nepal. We saw this huge Ford 250 XL from Spain, an overland truck from Encounter Overland, the UK company that has now gone bankrupt, and a Vauxhall Astra of which the owners had lost the Carnet de Passage en Douanes... |
