Lada Niva... It never changed at all in the years its been in production starting in 1977..... It's got its own cult following.......

Well... it did get a better, and fuel-injected, motor at some point.

An incredibly capable little 4x4 that is outright scary to drive on the highway.

I was always wondering what the name of that company was. AvtoVAZ There is a comedian who does spoof videos over green screen that mentioned them, among others but never heard of them.

We had those here in Canada in the early eighties with glasnost and all that. I had a 1981 for few years. It was da bomb. Loved it.
