Ladae - Ladae

Advantages: Cheap, reliable, long living, comfortable and excellent for long distances
Disadvantages: concerning the car none, but the service network is thin

...I also have an extremely good experience with Lada cars having already had the "original" type 2101 right up to the present 110 / 112. My 110 with 8 valves is surprisingly economical, has a powerful engine, cruises comfortably at 170 km/h and is an excellent car for long journeys offering all the comfort I need. Basically the same applies for my 112 with 16 valves but in comparison I prefer the 8 valve engine for long distances because it is smoother and runs, so to say, in the background. I love my 112 with 16 valves too, but in a different way. The 112 likes to be pushed, it's very lively, fun to drive, excellent road holding with an aggressive engine sound....quite nice but on really long distances exceeding 500 km I do prefer the 8 valve version. Neither my 110, or 112 have ABS, airbags or air-conditioning like the present Ladas... Read review

Advantages: Die Hard Car
Disadvantages: Well, Its a Lada.

...Truth be told, Ive never actually owned one, I would never admit it, but Ive been in quite a few. This is the car made from scrap sardine cans, yet can run on Vodka, that is because, of course, it is Russian made! (In Russia, its called the Zhiguli) In most former soviet countries, including the UK.... ur, sorry, slip of the tongue, we are of course still under a communist Dictatorship (I jest) you will find a Lada Riva, or its variant, or indeed, a Lada Riva Chasis, with things welded to it, driving around at full pelt. The Engine Rev counter only needs 2 settings for display, Engine off, and Full Revs, as Ive certainly never seen a Lada of any description operating under differing circumstances. Lada is the trademark of AvtoVAZ, a Russian car manufacturer.. It was chosen for exports over the domestic Zhiguli brand, but... Read review

Advantages: very cheap
Disadvantages: some

...I have a very good experience with Lada's cars, so read it carefully before thinking to buy it. Lada (Samara) is produced in Russia, Samara city. Lada 2110 is a new one and is made using modern technologies. I can recommend it as a good, cheap and fast car. ****Good**** What means good, it is nice inside as an outside. With all general facilities: electro glass regulation, and so on. Unfortunately there is no airbag, cruise control and abs. I am not very sure, hope some more luxury models have all mentioned, but I had a general one. Shape of a car is very nice, has different colours that changes on the sun (chameleon). *****Cheap**** Approximate cost of general complexion car in Russia is £2000-3000, however, prices different for UK. Also it is very cheap in service. ***** Fast***** As this car is not very heavy... Read review
