It was also made in Brazil, with minor changes compared to the EU version, and was very successful.
Here it was called the 147 and had a 1050cc or 1300cc "Lampredi" engine: lovely. Also, the rear suspension was changed from a trailing arms setup to McPherson struts.

This looks like Lada Niva's long lost cousin....

I dunno why but this Fiat reminds me of this. Maybe they share some genes?

They are related! Lada bought from Fiat the license for the 125, which is the predecessor to the 127. Lada's 125 has a lot names through the world, I know it as the Laika, and it has generated some other models in Lada's lineup, such as the Niva you pointed out.

As a result, most of the mechanical bits for the Niva can be get from old Fiats. When Lada closed their dealers in Brazil, there were only two ways to get to fix or mend them. Or to leave it opened/unlocked in the street, to make it get stolen and claim the insurance prize, or to search for 147 parts and pay for your mechanic to "adapt" them.

I own a 3 door version. But made by SEAT. In the early years of SEAT, they just built cars under Fiat licensing.

Lada produced various cars as this Niva with some parts of old Fiats. Nowadays they still produce the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lada_Riva largely based on the Fiat 124. It's such a copy of the original that some classic owners of Fiat 124 still buy new parts from Lada to replace the inexistent ones from Fiat.

EDIT: @Brunol wrote more or less the same at the same time, even with more detail. 👍

You have mostly right, it was Fiat 124 that Lada build under license not the 125 and the second wrong is that neither 124 or 125 was the predecessors for the 127. The predecessor for the 127 was the 850 and the successors to the 124 and the 125 was the 131 and the 132 . Now it's right.

How about the Sport edition, with a howling, road-scorching 70 hp?

It's a really nice car but I did suggest the first generation because I like the body style and because I think the slower cars already in the GT-series need more class friends So feel free to suggest the Sport version, like I said before it's a really nice car

Here it is a pic of mine from a couple of days ago. It's a Seat 127, though.
