FSC Żuk is a Polish delivery vehicle that was first presented to the general public in 1958 at the Poznań International Fair. Its serial production was carried out in the years 1959-1998. It gave concerts in the cities of Lublin and Hungarians in Poland, it was also licensed in Egypt. About 590,000 copies of this car were produced in the course of production. The main constructors of Żuk were engineers Stanisław Tański and Roman Skwarek.

The Żuk model was designed and put into production to replace the FSC Lublin-51 car on the market. It differed from its predecessor in many ways. First of all, it was based on the FSO Warszawa passenger car and shared the chassis, some of the engines and the running gear. Also, the body and the body were completely changed, which was now closed in many versions. The FSC Żuk produced in Poland was powered by various engines ranging from 54 to 70 HP. It was also available in several body versions, including: towos, van, minibus or pick-up. On its basis, specialist versions were also created, such as an ambulance or a police car. The car was very popular, despite its disadvantages - first of all it was characterized by poor durability of the suspension, which was highly emergency, with a small track, which had a negative effect on the road properties and high center of gravity.

Star 244 is a Polish, off-road, military and civilian truck manufactured by the "Star" Truck Factory in Starachowice. The first copies of this vehicle were built in 1975, and serial production was carried out in the years 1975-2000. The vehicle was powered by a single 150hp S359.55 engine.

Star 244 was created as the successor to the Star 28/29 series trucks. Compared to its predecessors, the new car differed primarily in the use of a drive unit with significantly greater maximum power, the size of the vehicle and the shape of the driver's cabin also changed. The overall structure of the car was also strengthened and adapted to off-road driving. In the course of serial production, several development versions of this car were created, for example: Star 3W244 (tipper truck), Star 244RS (version adapted to agricultural field work), Star 244L (extended version) or Star 3W244R (modified version of the tipper). Based on the Star 244 cars, several specialized vehicles were created, such as a fire-fighting car or a car with a basket lift.

Honker is a Polish, modern off-road vehicle. Serial production started in 1988 and continues, with some breaks. The manufacturers of this car were various entities, including: FSR, Daewoo Motor Polska or Fabryka Samochodow Hooker. The car was powered by various gasoline and diesel engines ranging from 75 to 115 HP. The load capacity of the car reaches 900 kg. The curb weight of the car is 2,250 kilograms.

Honker was developed to replace the UAZ-469 off-road vehicle in the Polish uniformed services. The first prototypes of the vehicle were built as early as 1979 on the basis of the Tarpan 234 prototype car. The final prototype was presented to the public in 1984, and the car entered production in 1988. Based on the basic version, many specialized and modernized versions were also created, including: Honker 4021 (ambulance), Honker Max (vehicle with increased off-road capability), as well as a fire engine version. There was also a prototype Honker Skorpion, which received light armor and armament and was dedicated to Polish troops serving in Iraq. Slightly modernized, it entered production under the designation Honker Skorpion-3.
