RE: 400-mile Lada Niva for sale
Discussion
Mmm a lot of hate. As is usual for PH.
I sold one a couple of years ago and people were fighting over it.
These later ones are really good - jeez, it even has aircon!
They are brilliant to drive and about the best thing off road. As the saying goes, don't knock it until you've tried it.

“ but details like the spindly handbrake, elementary dials and switches from a microwave give away the Niva’s true age‘
Does rudimentary fit the description better?
Anyhoo, the apples at Bramley have obviously been fermenting too long and the vendors allowing the resultant brew go to their heads.
Either that or they really need to halve the dosage of whatever it is they are smoking...

Is there something very special about that black one?
The German ones seem to start at €13k. OK, pre-registered, no radio or a/c but about 44% of the price of the one in the advert: https://home.mobile.de/ASRAUTOSERVICEEK#des_324231...
One with a/c for €15k: https://home.mobile.de/AUTOHANDELAWANGARD#des_3245...

Hope the dealer gets stuck with it who ever the dealer is they are 1 greedy bd regardless Lada cars of any model were truelly horrendous 30 to 35 years ago, they stopped being imported in the early 90s as they wey truelly crap good luck to the dealer when it's time for MOT time as they won't have sold it getting it through with the emissions that's 1 of the reasons these piles of turd stopped being on sale in the UK .
As someone who was a teenager in the 80s thank god my dad never bought a lada as everyone took the piss out of Ladas .

My Eastern European partner would be absolutely over the moon if I brought this home one day.
Then I'd tell her the price and she'd probably murder me in my sleep.
It wouldn’t bring back horrible memories of the dark days of communism then? Then I'd tell her the price and she'd probably murder me in my sleep.
Having said that it looks great fun (not for £25k though) and people on here take themselves too seriously. Would it be still on carbs or have the ruskies discovered fuel injection yet?

I used to drive one quite regularly, a decent one too, always quite liked the idea of one. But at that price you need to be on some seriously strong medication. They only make sense if they are cheap. So many cars do the same or better for less money.I sold one a couple of years ago and people were fighting over it.

As basic as it gets and as reliable and cheap to fix as it gets.
Those slating it need to compare it to other white goods like BMW,Merc, VAG products ect, their reliability is through the floor and sometimes impossible to repair.
The Lada doesn't need any special tools to fix it either , a hammer & a few spanners will do.
It's over priced but these are good reliable tough as old boots cars..
