“This Car Is In Great Shape For Russian Standards”

Lada_2

The Lada may be the most unloved vehicle on the planet. Why? Well that is because buying one brand new doesn’t guarantee a complete vehicle, or reliable starting. In fact, I have heard that most new Lada’s need to go directly to a shop to have all the bolts tightened. Of course, that is assuming that all of the bolts are at least partially installed at the Lada factory, which may or may not be the case. Assuming the Lada does run when it is new, and the owner has the bolts tightened, it usually makes it to the location of its first break-down without much effort. Sure the odometer can hit six figures, but every Lada owner knows that it is an impossible accomplishment.  Chances are better that you’ll be struck by lightning while winning the lottery.

Now, this specific Lada 2110 found on eBay is surprisingly clean because it only has 15K kilometers on it! That converts to less than 10K miles for those of us in America. Unfortunately it doesn’t have a title, so if you live in a state that requires titles and you don’t happen to “know a guy“, chances are good that the mileage will stay that way forever.  Then again, with the reputation that Lada’s have, even if you do have the ability to drive it legally, 16K kilometers may never be reached. In the eBay ad, the very passionate owner mentions that it is basically a show vehicle anyway, so you will want to trailer it and wax it regularly to keep it in tip top shape.

In passionate capital letters, here are the details pulled from the eBay listing:

“VERY RARE   RUSSIAN  2001 LADA 2110 , THIS CAR IS IN GREAT SHAPE FOR RUSSIAN  STANDARDS ,IT HAS ONLY 15K KILOMETERS ON IT, WAS ENJOYED ONLY IN GOOD WEATHER, TAKEN TO SHOWS AND EVENTS, YOU GET NOTICED IN THIS CAR MORE THAN DRIVING FERRARI OR BENTLEY, PEOPLE PULLING YOU OVER TO TAKE PICTURES ALL THE TIME,,,  MANY RECENT REPAIRS AND UPDATES INCLUDING TIMING BELT,ALL THE ENGINE MOUNTS HOSES CLAMS EVERYTHING WAS DONE ,ALL SUSPENSION  AND BRAKES , CLUTCH ,NEW TIRES AND WHEELS AND MUCH MORE  (feel free to find out more details).  IT HAS 1.5L FUEL INJECTED MOTOR.,IT ALSO GOT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT >> BRAVO VAZ <<    IN THE PICTURES CAR HAS JUMP PACK INSTEAD OF BATTERY, CAR WILL BE SOLD WITH BRAND NEW BATTERY…………………………………….!!!!  THIS CAR HAS NO TITLE AND CANNOT BE REGISTERED WITH IN USA !!!!,YOU CAN REGISTER THIS CAR IN SOME STATES THAT DON’T REQUIRE TITLE FOR OLDER CARS OR YOU CAN USE DEALER PLATES ONLY TO OPERATE THIS CAR OR TAKE TO EVENTS ON THE TRAILER,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.

There is no doubt that this is a show vehicle, and maybe even a show winner based on what I have seen. I just hope there is enough suspension to hold a Lada trophies.  Bring this Lada home with you for a bargain basement price. Bid high and check it out at ebay item number 190829052190

  2. Thirty two years ago I was in northern Ontario, Canada visiting a friend at Christmas. We were at the local post office/gas station/city hall/restaurant building and some guy in a Lada stopped for gas. The proprietor, a relocated South Vietnamese ran out, started screaming “Russia sucks” and commenced to beating on the car with a rubber hose. The guy looked at us standing next to the big yellow 4×4 with Texas plates and wisely jumped back in the Lada and put-putted off in a cloud of blue smoke. We were rewarded with a gap toothed grin and a salute.
