The people behind UAZparts
Behind every part we ship and every question we answer is a small team that lives and breathes UAZ. We daily-drive them, rebuild them, sometimes break them and then fix them again. Two people sit at the core of that crew, supported by a wider team in the warehouse, workshop and back office.
Daily-drives the Bukhanka he rebuilt bolt by bolt after years of off-road travel. He knows how to keep yours moving long after the tarmac ends.
Started with one rattling Bukhanka in Mongolia and now looks after a yard of Soviet steel. Builds vans he would happily drive to the edge of the map himself.
Your UAZ parts and workshop team. Fueled by passion. Driven by adventure. No matter where the road or no road takes you, we will be with you.
From driveway repairs to Europe’s UAZ hub
It began in 2002, somewhere deep in the Mongolian countryside, inside a tired Bukhanka that shook, rattled and roared its way through the dust. The roads were rough, the air dry, and the van just kept going. That trip did not just end — it planted the seed for what would become UAZparts.com.
A rattling Bukhanka on the steppe
A worn work van on rough tracks proved what these machines are made for. Simple, tough and strangely likeable. That first trip turned curiosity into obsession.
From one UAZ to a full yard
The first 469 arrived in the Netherlands from Germany. Soon the driveway filled with a Cold War GAZ, a DDR-built 469, a Polish Bukhanka radio van still alive with USSR-era electronics and the blue giant known as “The Hulk”.
UAZparts.com for Europe and beyond
Neighbours got used to the view. Other UAZ owners showed up with questions and broken parts. The driveway became a meeting place. The meeting place became a network. The network became UAZparts.com.
Why we are different
We keep our own stock, no endless “on order” delays. We ship fast, often the same day, anywhere in Europe and beyond. We know every nut, bolt and gasket on these machines, and if you call with a problem, you will speak to someone who has fixed the exact same thing.
Shelves filled with OEM, aftermarket and NOS parts ready to go. If it shows as in stock, it is in our racks.
We drive, break and repair our own UAZ vans. Advice comes from real world mileage, not from a catalogue.
Daily shipments across Europe and beyond, packed to survive rough handling and remote destinations.
We see every order as another UAZ staying on the road. That is what drives the whole operation.
The UAZ feeling
If you own one, you know it. That cough on a frosty morning before the engine bursts into life. The door that always shuts properly on the second try. The smell of warm oil after a steep climb. The stares at the fuel station followed by the same question every time, “What is that?”
It is stubborn. It is imperfect. It is yours. That is exactly why we keep them running.
What we stock
If the part exists, we will find it. If it does not, we will try to make it happen. Our range includes:
- OEM, aftermarket and NOS components
- Refurbished and tested used parts
- Upgrade kits for brakes, suspension, ignition and steering
- Full coverage for Bukhanka, 469, Hunter, GAZ-69, Profi and more
Fast, worldwide delivery
We ship daily from our Zutphen warehouse to every EU country and far beyond. Packed right, shipped fast, tracked all the way. From Portugal to Poland, Iceland to Australia, we have sent UAZ parts almost everywhere they are needed.
A community on wheels
Our parts have crossed Icelandic rivers, climbed remote Georgian tracks, rolled into rallies, weddings and long expeditions. The vehicles carry the stories, but the owners bring them to life. Road trip photos, trail tips and the occasional “we broke down but we made it” are all part of what makes this more than just a webshop.
If you are here, you are already part of it.
Looking back and forward
From a single Bukhanka in Mongolia to a dedicated UAZ parts network in Europe, we have grown through persistence, resourcefulness and a shared passion for keeping Soviet steel alive. We will continue sourcing, testing and shipping the parts that keep your UAZ going where others stop.
Your journey starts here. Let us keep it rolling.
