my names jane & i may just have what you are looking for. its a lada riva slx red in colour on a D plate now this is where you are'nt going to believe your eyes its got 5859 original miles on the clock. the reason for this is my uncle had a stroke god 16yrs ago & since then the car was put into storage.unfortunately he died 2yrs ago & thats why i have it now.its only ever had 1 owner from new & that was my uncle. the body work is immaculate as is the interior it has all original parts etc it needs silly little things doing to it ie new hand brake cable - got,oil filter - got,a new window winder- ordering. im looking for a loving home for it as it is in show condition. i have the service records from new to prove milage & everything to change owners.i feel sorry for it standing there. my e-mail is

Pleased to hear it. At that mileage and with a full history it would be a shame to alter it from standard. Well done mate.

If you do get riva, i would recomend modifying it, decent shocks, stiffer springs, lower ride height, altered front suspension geometry and wider tyres. That lot will drastically improve the handling. Best thing ive done to my 1500.

PS, have you got a driving liscence now?

What did the hydraulics from the last one go into? Are you planning on low ridering your next Riva as well?

i put my pumps in my mercedes
then took em out and traded them for a parts car
if this riva is reaal clean i dont think i could cut it, it wouldnt be fair.
i'd like to build another one and now i have a steady income i could make it 10x better than the last one. out of all my cars it was the best one i had
(the girl werent my choice!!!
