Hooniverse Post on Lada 2107

Hoonobituary: The Classic Lada 2107 Riva. 

The post (linked to above) is from some two years ago that I came across just now.

The link is worth clicking only to look at some attached pics of the Lada 2107.

The written commentary is frankly all predictable and cliched rubbish most likely produced by someone who has never driven one, let alone actually owned one, though it is understandable.

But I did drive it. In fact I learned to drive in it.

For a long time it was top of my car wish list. In fact, it remains there.

Unfortunately it's now two years since it went out of production.

Yes, it was the world's last compact and affordable rear wheel drive classic sedan.
