r/lada

Okay, a total of ten employees at two dealerships is admittedly not a lot. But in the 70s and 80s Lada used to be quite popular over here. Now, no more new ladas, only resale of those that were sold till now. What a shame :(

I am Romanian, and I have never heard of Lada being made in Romania, but right now I searched on Wikipedia and I saw that those two models of Lada, as of Wikipedia, were assembled in Romania. Is it real? Can someone give me some info about it? Thx.

Idk if it's the right place to ask but I will post it here anyways.

Here are the Priora and Kalina Wikipedia pages.

Went outside at dusk and thought the lighting was good 🤷

The 1600 Niva had a 12V socket in the engine bay for the weirdly shaped work light that came in the car tools, the 1700 doesnt. So I made my own

I used HELLA 8JB 004 123-002 socket for this and placed it exactly where the original one would be above the brake fluid reservoir. Now just run wires and its good to go.

Im a relatively new lada owner, i have a 21061 (1500s) i am going to be pulling the gearbox out to replace the clutch and pilot bearing etc. I have a 5 speed swapped in by the previous owner

I had the surround sold by ladapower with the little cup holder but to be honest i want it to look original. As you can see in the second picture the carpet has been pretty butchered unfortunately. My question is does anyone have any ideas on how i can get this looking as factory as possible?

Im also not sure what parts were there originally and what have been added by the pervious owner so any pictures of what it should look like under an oem shift boot would be very helpful. Thanks

What are the difference between the 2103 and the 2106 and how do you tell them apart from each other

The Lada C is a joint project between Lada and the Canadian automotive components manufacturer Magna International, which involves the creation of a series of C-segment cars.

This prototype was first unveiled in 2007 at the Geneva International Motor Show. Its technical specifications were listed on the exhibition stand: length – 4208 mm, width – 1835 mm, height – 1548 mm, engine displacement – 2.0 L, and maximum speed – 210 km/h.

However, the project was frozen in 2009 and completely shut down in 2014. The exact reasons are unknown.

Addition:

In 2009, cooperation with Magna International was frozen in favor of the Franco-Japanese alliance "Renault-Nissan," and the French company Renault acquired a 25% stake in AvtoVAZ. The alliance provided its B0 platforms (not to be confused with the "Lada B" platform). However, the developments with Magna International remain valid and will be used in the creation of new vehicles.

Since 2009, due to the difficult economic situation of OJSC "AvtoVAZ," "Project C" has been suspended. The "Lada B" platform and a number of developments formed the basis for the new Lada Vesta model.

From the uk and 2105 are rare, maybe 10 on the road, maybe a few more maybe less, right hand drive.
