Hello welcome to mud club..

Im on my second niva now...

Cheers Gav

thanks

great little off roader was my Niva - used it daily in Scotland with my salmon fishing business

must be one of the very few cars to be suppplied with a manual starting handle?

are they still made? - as i gather UK import ended?

i remember when i was fishing on the west coast of Scotland the Russian trawlers called into Kinlochbervie to pick up secondhand Lada's - amazing how many they stacked on deck! - most could not pay so traded cod etc for cars!!

forgot to say one of my other interests is car detailing - but not the obsessive/compulsive type :evil:

i had my Grand professionally detailed and the difference it made was stunning - gone were all the scratches/swirls and the paint shone like never before

i learnt about different waxes and polishes etc and the best way to use and maintain

once you get the car 'sorted' its amazingly easy to maintain with simple two bucket washing and a bit of common sense

and mine gets used off road so is no posing street machine
