P.S. Lol, rebels in Eastern Ukraine captured a tank of the governmental army using a yellow Niva.
The T-64 stuck, but the Niva didn't. :D
 
The funny thing about the Niva, I think I saw a few in my country aswell. I suppose Lada Niva was supposed to be imported for other countries? Well, qhich is kinda normal, I guess...

BTW, awesome first, second and third pictures there, comrade. Good stuff.
 
Yes, it's one of the few Soviet/Russian cars widely known around the world. The only Soviet car officially imported to Japan (!).
I heard it even climbed on the Mount Fuji.

It's drastically underpowered, not exactly pretty and you are required to have some masochistic tendencies to even think about driving one.

Is it the military history? Patriotism?

I'm not exactly patriotic, I must say...

Is it the promise of adventure, of discovering the unknown?
