I'm probably not the only one... that keeps a list of cars "I would like to own" one day. Nothing strange for car-guys right? Of course the obvious suspects like BMW 2002, Ford Escort Mk. 1, and Alpine A110 ... I have a somewhat quirky taste. On that quirky list is the Rover 220 turbo coupe, classic Mini Clubman/van and... an good old boxy Lada. The Lada story started with an 1200 in maroon red (21012 to be precise). A relative young example - from first owner build in 1988. Still love that car. both the 2101 Lada & Fiat 124 Familiare And since we like to use our cars for long holidays - the best upgrade would be an Estate - right? The hunt for an Lada 2102, was a journey of years... Good ones are rare to find. Bad ones also. Most of them are in eastern Europe.... always advertised with 49.000 km's on the speedo (for a 50 year old car ;-)... and the paint still wet. For real money.. And since I'm not 100% stuck on it to be Russia...
