So, uh, any Lada enthusiasts here?

Fuck Yea. You got any classic ones?

Dad used tp own a niva when I was really young. It was a magnificant offroader but needless to say it broke so he sold it. I wish I had pictures of it

>Saw a Lada Cossack for sale for £2100 the other week
>Ad was gone within 12 hours

I have no idea why I want one but apparently other people in rural Scotland love Cossacks too

I was actually leaning toward the Daihatsu FourTrak

>dat 2.8 intercooled turbodiesel

If Trump gets elected what's the chances of being friendly enough with Russia to start importing old Ladas to the states? I need a Niva in my life.

i spend my childhood in one of the 2110's. My father wasn't giving a shit about servicing, this shitbox go 70k km (45k miles) without changing oil EVERYTIME. It now has +300k km (+186k miles) and it is still going.

You can do that now

Elaborate good Anon! I thought there was some funky laws on getting stuff from Russia. Where/how does one do this? Assuming a projected budget of 6,000 is this feasible?

>>16114455
Its possible, and no one says you have to get it from Russia, i think Canada may have had them as well and plenty of east europe countries have them. Just search import lada niva or import car from europe and youll find articles. But its such a pain that most people dont do it. It can cost you from 2000$ to 8000$ based on what i read just to inport it, without the cost of the car. And it needs to be older than 25years.

>Still produce Niva
Absolutely great of them, it's kinda shame other manufacturers gave up older models.

Vesta also looks incredibly great and I'd get one of I had the money.

I kinda want to import a clean 2103 and drop, whitewall, roof rack it

>Absolutely great of them

It would've been great if they kept improving it during these years. Just continuing to produce a 40 year old shitbox with the same stupid power, rust, safety and vibration issues is nothing to be proud of.

What the fuck? Explain yourself.

>>16115457
I'm not a hater of any brand. The Renault Talisman looks nice, despite not being impressive performance-wise.
Anyways, so what's so amazing about the Vesta? Looks like a boring shitbox with no redeeming qualities apart from the price to me.

any crazy commie videos where they put a proper engine in one of them?

>>16112644
I used to work with a bunch of guys who left Lada's Tolyatti plant. Awesome bunch. I don't know anything about the cars though... Most of the guys were systems engineers and ops people.
