Delivery Milage Riva & Samara!
Check out the latest ebay listings. There are two del. milage lada's. Been kept in a heated garage all their lives. http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/%2Flada ... QQsbrsrtZd
Couple of lovely cars there, lovely cars. Had I a few grand spare and a garage I'd be after the Riva like a shot. It's the ideal show car!
They'll need work to be recommisioned though, brakes, tyres, fluids at least. Irrespetive of whether they've been kept wheels up, I'd not be too happy driving with ten year old rubber on the wheels.
Obviously the first thing you'd want to do is get the entire car professionally rust proofed so that it stays looking like new, as not everyone has a dehumidified and heated garage!
I'm not usually one for the museum approach - a car was made to be driven...but these two, they've been preserved so well this far...it almost seems a shame not to tuck them safely away in a museum somewhere like a little Russian time capsule.
