Brand new Lada Niva

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Good that! I've always fancied a Lada (i'd even like the saloon riva!) Im surprised at how favourably it was rated!

That's mainly why I posted.

Nice to see media telling the truth rather than praising some all singing and dancing electronic job. (which incidentally they did in the previous episode)

I especially liked the bit where the camera car grounded out and he bounced off up the hill saying "lightness really counts"
