Riva 2107
Posted: Wed Apr 07, 2021 10:52 am
Hello,
The time has come to offer my Lada Riva to someone else to take on the mantle. It has been a great car for me and I drive it regularly. It passed it's MOT two weeks ago and is ready to drive.
My only reason for considering a sale is that I can no longer the TLC that a 34 year old car deserves and I'd rather someone who is an enthusiast takes it on so that it doesn't deteriorate.
I've owned it since 2011 and had it maintained throughout. The wings have been repaired in the top corners and most of it is original - since I have owned it the replacement parts seem all to be wear and tear parts - a new battery, squirter pumps, rear light clusters, wing flashers, a few cables and pipes. However, I have replaced the old heater valve which leaked, the distributer because the old base plate was worn and parts of the exhaust.
The previous owner, for some reason, cut out the headlining and left the insulation exposed. I never managed to refit the lining - at the time I bought it, I used a form of decoupage to stick some old soviet flags up there and that worked for me so when I did order new lining I never replaced it. There is a scuff on the rear nearside wheel arch.
Here are a few photos - although I debadged it to read 'Legendary' it is a 1.3SL.
Any questions, feel free to message me - the main thing is that I'd be looking for around £2,500.
