Good Points
Brutal good looks, very, very cheap...
Bad Points
Underpowered and for such a small engine very petrol happy, too much crappy plastic.
General Comments
Bought the Lada Niva 4x4 car as an early (pre Cossack) left hander. Looked in great nick but really wasn't. In the six months I owned it I spent the purchase price on it and then some. Saying that it was lots of fun until it finally died when the front axel fell off, ripping the bolts out of the alloy cast gearbox.
