The Portuguese Umm company was founded in 1977 when it started to build the French Cournil Off-road vehicle under license. This basic 4WD French example dates from 1965.
The Alter 4x4 was introduced in 1985. After 1994 only built for military purposes.
The turbo intercooler engine was available from 1987 onwards.
It's a rare 4WD car in Northern Europe. I don't know what will happen with this car. In 2016 I discovered another neglected Umm in this same backyard. It had disappeared in 2021.
2.5L turbo intercooler diesel engine.
Production Alter II: 1986-1996, divided over three phases.

Forty miles of bad road...
Zen Koan: “Muddy Road” Parable:
Tanzan and Ekido were once traveling together down a muddy road. A heavy rain was still falling.
Coming around a bend, they met a lovely girl in a silk kimono and sash, unable to cross the intersection.
“Come on, girl” said Tanzan at once. Lifting her in his arms, he carried her over the mud.
Ekido did not speak again until that night when they reached a lodging temple. Then he no longer could restrain himself. “We monks don’t go near females,” he told Tanzan, “especially not young and lovely ones. It is dangerous. Why did you do that?”
“I left the girl there,” said Tanzan. “Are you still carrying her?”
An old car which still does long journeys. It normally resides over 200 miles from here, and Sam (bramm77) has several shots of it near home. This is the second time I've seen it round here.
148,000 miles at the last MOT.
Probably the weirdest thing I've seen, this brand new SCEO, complete with plastic seat coverings is just abandoned on the street, still wearing showroom plates. The piece of paper on the windscreen is a warning notice that the car will be impounded if it isn't moved soon.
The fifth generation of the Toyota Hilux was built from 1988 until 1997. In Europe Volkswagen sold a badge engineered version, called Taro. This is 4WD model with a 2.4 litre diesel engine.
Diesen Toyota Tercel 4WD habe ich 2007 in Deutschland an einen Afrikaner verkauft .. 1 Jahr später hat er mir eine E-mail geschrieben und dieses Foto geschickt. Oh Mann .. wie die Zeit vergeht! 👎😜
I sold this Toyota Tercel 4WD to an African in Germany in 2007. 1 year later he wrote me an email and sent this photo. Oh man.. how time flies! 👎😜
A dual-pump system, so the sticker says. Bonus Prelude behind it, and there was another one in a shed elsewhere.
Ok, back to the night photography....

Seen here with what I think is a power harrow. It had been around the headlands of a couple of large fields of stubble.
Its not a car, not a ute, not a tractor....maybe a Cambodian 4WD? So many of these shots were taken out of a bus window!!
Between Naesby and the Waitaki Valley, above Danseys Pass. Near the boundary between Canterbury and Otago. Middle of nowhere.
