ITT it's 1979 and you are a citizen of the Soviet Union, you've just been given a ticket for any (normal/civilian) eastern block car. What car do you choose and why?

It's really hard to resist the ZAZ-968 with its charming rear-mounted air-cooled V4 and surprising offroad capabilities, but I'm pretty sure the GAZ-21 is simply the much better car. Better styling, better materials, more powerful, bigger.

Little bit of a stretch - it was preferred by the upper class

I'd go with a Lada Niva

Good choice.

I'd be split between a Lada Niva and VAZ-2101, but with the Fiat 124 underpinnings I think I'd probably end up going with the 2101.
