did you know that russia has car manufacturing?
>>518117165Yeah, but do they have tigers?
>>518117165the father of a kid in our childhood group had a lada and it was always a matter of ridicule
Russia has no car culture. They have no dynos. They dont have 30-50 years of dyno run data to pull from out of a computer. Theyre decades behind.

>>518117165Will it take me from point A to point B cheap and the car is cheap - I am sold! Too much shit in new cars. That one looks cheap to maintain an million of parts exist easy to change.
>>518117165And how much does that cost?
>>518117165Where this is going it's not going to need good cabin welds.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98gDzvjRJhs(it's not going to Sweden)((Niva doesn't actually sound like that and also takes 30 sec to reach 100kmph))(((it also guzzles up to 15l/100km in the process)))
>>518117273No, only drunk bears
Mercedes apparently has a factory in russia or so to build all the cars for their market
>>518117165>leaf springs in 2025pidors, not even once lol
>>518117165You mean the USSR had car manufacturing, more specifically, Ukraine and the Yugoslavia
>>518117789it will most likely fall apart before reaching anything

>>518118018>it will most likely fall apart before reaching anythingLike most cars in that price range?

get yours now!
>>518118600>>Hilux>>14kNo fucking wayFrom£36,765.83 (Excl. VAT)*So that about 40 000 bongpounds. Hell even Dacia has upped their price All I'm saying Lada is make it for the uk market and I'll think about it. Love the shape of a niva
The old ones are atrocious, I'd like to have one as a curiosity to poke around a corner with but not to actually drive anywhere.The newest ones though, they seem to be quite different.Not haute autocouture, and not even remotely anything a motoring enthusiast would own, but in a way of speaking the least Jewish car in the world.No safety features except the seatbelt. No electronic interference, no stupid lane assist handcuffs, no totalitarian surveillance on your dashboard, and no infotainment system.Makes the Dacia Sandero look luxurious. Those are Jewish too now.
>>518118794The niva is so rough its almost a feature not a bugApparently the engine noise and wind noise need work
>>518118765Ooooh nooooo you're barking at a bargain thereeee.... LOOK AT THAT (pic rel)
>>518118600Importing one here bumps that starting at $28k, but that price is for the Aussie market. You cant suffer in the land of roo's.

pigdog western european car in comparison(just kidding love to czech)
>>518118619All Russian ladas are total shit.Only soviet ladas are good!
Russia manufactures a lot of things that you wouldn't expect.They also do semiconductors. You know microchip shit.They're a few generations behind Taiwan but not many countries do it at all.
The NIVA IS BACK!https://lada4x4.co.uk/We have achieved a supply ofnew vehicles made in Azerbaijan.Its saying 16 700 plus vat...this is goodWonder what the cost of getting the steering wheel over would be
Buhanka master race
>>518119236I imagine because the soviets intended for them to be in use for a long time. While modern company has to consider next years revenue stream
>>518119102that is simply a VW Passat, Skoda is owned by VW
>>518117165What a joke Russia is.
>>518117165>>518117687westoid troons think this is an own against Russia but in reality it’s why Russia is winning and the w*st is dying. The westoid autistically obsesses over a car being delivered smooth and unblemished, whereas the Russian accepts that the car is a tool to be used for transport and production.
Prob better than the shit we have, the govt here has made it so small practice cars don't exist, want a no frills no electronic small ute with a big tray like in Japan? Lol no
>>518119580Didn't a lot of ladas make it to NZ in exchange for butter at one point?
>>5181177951 Russian soldiers life.So pretty much almost free.

>>518118886https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0f6fPQsyhJ4For the sounds.These are good beater cars because spare parts are cheap, maintenance is easy because everything has large tolerances, every tiny quirk and potential issue has been discovered and discussed in detail. It can be used as a toy to tinker with and pimped out with aftermarket parts or DIY stuff.It will get you to places few cars can reach. But it's not a comfortable ride. Driving it every day, on a busy highway with flawless asphalt road must be miserable.
>>518119750Didn't you lose the war? I know England did
I think they are better off selling vodka. or ak47s. or novels about suicide

>>518117165They have nigger-tier intellect. It’s impressive they’ve even managed that.
>>518117687ngl its a pretty cool van. I'd buy one of them if it was cheap. Looks like something I could fix on my own
>>518120901We all lost that but at least we have good living standards.
>>518117165>car manufacturingWhy do we need this? Our elites only drive german cars.God, i hate those faggots.
Lada could be cool if it was cheaper. 15k+ for that is really not worth it at all.
>>518120188the problem is not in simplicity, but in the quality of assembly, welding, and materials. If you don't send it to service straight from the dealership, it will rot away within a year.Still, Bukhanka is a unique car with excellent performance at its intended job. It would be world class if they just gave a shit and built it properly.

>>518117165That's Chinese level of "quality"
One Niva or two Toyotas, which way western man?
>>518119955I love those kind of boxy cars, wish they'd sell those here. They just look so reliable
>>518118619F150 has poor interior fitment too. No one makes good cars anymore.
>>518121182>Our elites only drive german cars.It's not the 1990s anymore, most of them drive Aurus, which is Russian, and is much more innovative than most foreign high-end cars these days.I'd argue since 2022, our automotive industry is experiencing a huge growth, Moskvich has been resurrected and makes good cars now, most Ladas are good for their price, UAZ is planning to launch new models soon.
>>518121452Britain had some very soulful vehicles back in the day.Anything made by Reliant for exampleI'd be tempted by a Robin but the fibreglass bodies have gotta be near the end of their life by now.

>>518117165omg it looks so shit it's unreal
>>518117165>>518117687They're pragmatic and not filled with digital 'smart' bullshit. Who gives a fuck that these things look like they're from the 70s. If it looks stupid but it works it's it stupid.
>>518122211>it's NOT stupidI meant to say (I'm stupid)
>>518117165that engine is literally a fucking Fiat from Italy. always has been. russians are fucking niggers never invented anything never produced anything original. even their most famous shit like the AK assault rifle family, the Lada Niva & VFTS are fucking stolen american and german designs and built on foreign parts and still underperform the originals. subhuman fucking vodkanigger trash.
>>518121951How long can painted fibreglass really last?Some of these vehicles are gonna be hitting 80 soon.
>>518121733>utter shit is “sovl” because its britishI despise people like you
>>518122211Yeah who needs airbags and all that nonsense.....It's garbage quality all over.Simplicity is one thing but garbage is garbage.
>>518118960why is it more expansive than in germany?

Brazil used to make the goat of off-road cars, called Troller. They got bought by Ford just so they could kill the product and close the factories and even though they aren't made anymore there's still huge demand. They used to be made in my state, GM bought the factory. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troller_Ve%C3%ADculos_Especiaishttps://www.troller.com.br/conheca-o-carro
>>518121733>fibreglass bodies have gotta be near the end of their life by now.Fiberglass lasts forever.In Eastern Germany they literally cannot get rid of their communist era fiberglass cars.It's also a big problem with wind turbine blades: they will still be around a million years from now.
>>518121951Based, it's shit that we were brainwashed to hate domestic products. Before social media nobody knew about how much those scum controlled information
>>518122403My nigger the Reliant cars are amazing!They are simple, reliable and well suited for British roads and above all else they work perfectly with our garbage tier parking situation
>>518117165>nothing security welded, everything was just tacked in place>fucking tiny screws holding everything else together>no solid pieces of metal at all, just random sheetslol
>>518122782Not true. The binder resin will degrade over time making the fibreglass brittle. It won't rot away or break down. But the car body will be very brittle.
did you know moskvich has the same design since 1979?
>>518119955I'd love to have that ride. Does she come with it?
>>518117687Just like in the olden days.
>>518123035If it works comrade.
Yeah, but yet they still prefer to drive german cars. How ironic.

>>518122357https://youtu.be/NtkJZ3yNT1gThis one from the late 80s and early 90s is fiberglass over a tubular steel chassis and is still in great condition. It all depends on how exposed to the elements it was (leaving it under sunlight and rain for example). The material CAN brittle with age.>>518122822We have the materials and the industry creates a lot of jobs too.
>>518117687this looks better than the retarded shit we get here with some giant android chinkpad on the dashboardif only it was built correctly with proper safety features i'd buy it in a heartbeat
>>518122403From what I've hear the target audience was perfectly happy with those.I don't think you should compare them to a car but see them more like a moped that keeps you dry.If you just want to get from your country house to your job 20km down the road it should be fine and a lot better than cycling in the rain.
>>518121820why are you mad at him?
>>518123320Brother the cars I'm talking about were made in the 50s and 60s
>>518118018How can this be real? You can build a go cart better than that for way cheaper it just won't go as fast but you still probably at least get 30 mph with a simple lawnmower engine and you are gonna need shocks. Shocks roll cage preferably and small engine. How hard is that? You could have put that together the time you took to wait in line. This can't be real
>>518123419He's lying, that's his job as a propaganda shill.
>>518123377The flatbeds (called Ants) were very popular with UK councils who used them for decades Most users of the Robin though were dodging the driving license rules, since they were legally motorcycles Still very functional vehicles mind
>>518117165I would buy it because it's a car that you can fix yourself beause it's so simple. Russia should try exporting these vehicles
>>518117165Yeah they also use airport vans to transport soldiers into combat lmfao BLYAT
>>518117165>>518117687Yes, and the Niva shown is one of the few 4x4s which is still below $20k. Still built the way it was designed 50 years ago and still repairable in the field.They do have other more modern designs of cars but the ones you highlight are specifically designed to be 4x4 utility vehicles.Anyone buying one of these wants it because it can go anywhere and can be easily fixed
>>518117165
>>518117687That's $19,500 or so in USD
>>518121569I want a fucking 4runner.
>>518123607>dodging the driving license rules, since they were legally motorcyclesIsn't it harder and more expensive to get a motorcycle driving license than to get a car driving license?Or can you get them at a younger age?These things are quite popular among rich people here in Amsterdam because you can drive them from age 16 whereas you need to be 18 for a real car.
>>518117165I don´t know nothing about cars and even I can tell is a shoddy piece of shit

>>518117309May parents had one for a couple years and it was shit. Very unreliable. Once it started smoldering on the way home from a Sunday trip. But there were Russians who wanted to buy it from my dad on the spot everywhere we got out the car.

>>518123710You have never seen a Lada Niva?
>>518118619A million rubles is 12,163 usd.
>>518124342It was a Lada Samara. It had a lot of problems with starting in cold weather (unexpected for a Russian made car) and then the electronics had issues. But I was a kid at that time, so the blame would lie with my dad. Maybe it was a lemon.
>>518117165Everything in Russia is military-grade. When it comes down to non-military stuff... well it's sad.
>>518124537I've been playing RuneScape it's alada samsara too
>>518122404The combi is a 4x4 utility hauler for places with extremely poor road infrastructure. The people that are serious about buying one and aren't meme collectors have no use for airbags. It's like asking for airbags on a UTV.
>>518117789You pidor rapefugees always post that, but how many in pidor diaspora buys ladas vs European cars?!!!
>>518123035don't fix it if it ain't broken. also what the fuck is this thread? some memeflag vaguely seething about russian auto manufacturing?
>>518117877Treating a lada means treating it like a palestinian.
>>518124658It's probably a lot cooler in the game than being a teenager being picked up from a party in one in the early 90s.
>>518124647Yeah, sure, RF can't make Ladas, but at least Armatas xD?
>>518124356He's a Zoomer who thinks it's something new and not something hipsters have been driving here for decades.
>russian dick sucking thread number 105not even russians want to buy russian vehicles thats why most of them drive around in mercs.
>>518117687Vehicles like this would sell like hotcakes in the US if we didn't have CAFE shitting up the auto market.
>>518124342I had the misfortune of having to drive it for errands 15 minutesa fucking nightmare is what it is. whatever didnt break down on the wayrussia should just scrap their car project and keep to their strengths aka just sell oil and be silentstop wasting time they will never make it on car market not with established giants 50 years ahead of themif VW or Toyota dont grab them by the head and tech them well and good how to suck dick its never going to happen
>>518119955Is this a russian woman? Shes hideous. She is the color of poop. Very typical of how american blonde girls look. They all turn themselves brown.
>>518124993kek. It's drunk boomers in hunting gear around here.
>>518118018you mean like how anything the US and Western Europe produce is rusting and having electronics slop fail before they even leave the dealership?
>>518117687this but unironically
>>518117165Lada Niva is pretty good. Reliable, easy to fix, works in extreme climates. Love it. Sure, it feels cheap and isn't exactly safe (in terms of modern standards). But it works.
>>518117273>Yeah, but do they have tigers?all the Tigr-Ms are burning in Ukrane

>>518117687>Low cost vehicle without unwanted electronic slop is cheapProblem?
>>518122404Airbags, ABS, and crumple zones are all a modern car really needs. Most other "modern" features are distractions that actively contribute to a more dangerous driving experience, especially given the increasing number of browns behind the wheel.
>>518125078>Drove it for 15 minutes and experienced breakdownsFor some reason, I don't quite believe you, memeflag.
>>518124865Does it matter? They're all drone target practice anyway.
>>518125368also for some reason russian cars are cheaper in KZ and look better toomight want to look into it ivan I am curious as well>>518125738for some reason I dont remember you sitting next to me while I was at it
Honestly, I don't even know why Kremlin tries to sell these outside of Russia. They were made for a very specific environment (free spare parts, shitty road conditions, dedicated mechanic crews) - a Soviet economy, and they were made for a dedicated purpose in such economy. Outside of that environment they are just ridiculous - expensive, fuel consuming, unreliable, etc.
>>518117165No, we do not.
>>518125927Does putting faggy balloons on a car REALLY help sell them?
>>518125927Must have driven just fine for the guy before you.Sounds like a skill issue.
>>518125927>for some reasonEverything for our esteemed partners and with a discount!5D chess and all.

>>518123516so what's the real facts?you can't just accuse him of propaganda without actually proving him wrong with your own info.Otherwise you are the one that looks like a seething shill
>>518117165I want one so bad but they can't get imported new here since long ago because of the gay EUSSR
>>518117165I drove one of those in DayZ once.
>>518125927whatever, they gonna open dealerships and resell it back
>>518117165Yeah, it's ugly, super old tech and build like shit but I bet this Lada is cheap as hell so average russian can get one, right?
>>518123354>proper safety featuresgay. Cars built in the early to mid 90s didn't have all those safety features we have today and they were fine. Even in a crash. Also roads have been safer than ever before. Hardly anyone is racing on the Autobahn anymore.
>>518117165the only thing that's got me scratching my head is the thin steel under the 4x4 which might rust out
>>518126429Take off the memeflag.Assuming you are either a "russia bad" shill or shill for the failing US auto industry making shit up.
>>518126429Well someone has to be the designated thread retard, and you're the one with a memeflag.
>>518117165basically their entire car industry is chinese nowadays from what i get(i wonder if volvo is still around though since they are chinese owned)
>>518126491Real facts is that not long ago a woman broke her spine when the steering wheel failed on her LADA.Aurus bullshit is only for the official occasions, so they drive it for what, like 6-7 times a year?"Ressurected" Moskvich is just chinese JAC.Oh, and we get a new tax for the new cars that will make the price 2-3x.
>>518126738there are so many cars in each neighborhood where i live that they are stacked in front of eachother constantly blocking the exitthey are also doing a massive road widening construction project all over the city this yeari wish there were fewer cars, very much

>>518127054>not germanok, zoomie.
Not lying, the Lada Niva 4x4 is a very valid product.
>>518119955I wish I had a gf
>>518118886I had a Lada 1200L from 1980, I measured the cabin noise at 93 decibels.Definitely a love-hate relationship with that car but I miss it and regret selling it.If I didn't need a van I'd probably buy an early 90s Lada Niva.
>>518117165>>518117687These are good cars for one thing and one thing only: you need to get somewhere unreachable and speed and fuel consumption are of no concern to you. They're not bad in and of themselves, but the fact this is the main thing they make with some redesigned Renault shitboxes is damning. And of course they're not cars for city driving, they're too slow even for that.
>>518122325bet you think the AK47 is just an MP44 copy you dumbass nigger
>>518117165yeah i knew that
>>518127258ARRR MATEY!>>518126757The NHSTA at the behest of the auto industry pushes extraneous safety features here so they can shove it down your throat and make you pay for it.All regulatory agencies are captured by the same industries they regulate>If you can't innovate, regulate
>>518126923similar to us thento the point that togg(state backed ev brand)is cheaper in germany then here(in fairness only reason they are planning to sell it here is the diaspora)
>>518127054>>518127803*POOF!*Hyuck, hyuck, I'm an American again, y'all.SeeIt's just that easy
Russian vehicles could be popular in the west, a lot of people want a mechanically simple cheap small car without all the modern electronic horse shit.

>>518120190The UK is known in the car trade as "Treasure Island".>>518118765"Renault 5 on a Land Rover chassis". Hard not to like the concept on some level
>>518127685>early 90s Lada Niva (now named "Taiga")I've driven one of those for a week on mountain roads in Ecuador. It was perfect for the task. Handling like a standard european car, smaller and lower weight than US-made SUVs, which is helpful on dodgy bridges, consumed surprisingly little fuel, and had all the 4 WD / extra low gear functions that you need.
>>518124064In places that are more accepting of parking chaos like Italy and Greece you can park that thing on the street end-on.
>>518128835Your video didn't show anything but the interior of a cheap vehicle being cheap.I've also seen a video of a woman tearing apart the plastic body panels and interior of a new $125k Escalade with her bare hands.What's your point, disingenuous memeflag shill?
>>518130340>>518127685>when they rape you so hard you start enjoying it Automotive Stockholm syndrome lol
>>518117687Thats badass. Especially at $9,000 brand new. Can be fixed with a hammer and swear words. How can I import one into the USA?
>>518130556>I've also seen a video of a woman tearing apart the plastic body panels and interior of a new $125k Escalade with her bare hands.psst those videos are fakethe parts are prepped to come off by hand and you are a gullible tiktok retard
>>518130614I've seen a Buhanka on the parking lot of our local ALDI recently. Guess that there was a lot of them in East Germany when we took over, so it's possible to find them here. No idea about how to import into the USA from EU, but it should be possible.
>>518119556Congrats, you win the biggest faggot post of the day award. Please move to Russia you retarded pajeet.
>>518130556buy one you nigger and make a seethe thread later
>>518128835Why don't they adopt the retro futuristic aesthetic?
>>518130670>the parts are prepped to come off by hand And the video memeflag posted wasn't staged?I've driven a $200k Freightliner with an interior that could easily be ripped apart by hand. In fact, the knobs for climate control broke like a toy and so did the replacements.Panels are packaging-material thin and brittle.Every new vehicle is overpriced Fisher Price quality.
>>518131188>And the video memeflag posted wasn't staged?you can't stage shit welding and flaking paintworkbut you can undo some plastic pins to make "parts come off by hand" there's a difference
>>518130964I would prefer one over a new vehicle intended for the US market if I had the choice.It looks like a clone of a '70s VW van, which was a decent beater vehicle that people were still driving in the late '90s.
>>518131188oioioi you made a grave error nowI too have driven freight trucksyour american whatsthemcalled are dogshit compared to european especially volvo and scaniawhatever you will come up with it will not stand to european qualityyou will fit right in with in russian kamaz and chinese shit that crumbles when left to sun too long
>>518117165They're excellent cars to be honest. What other car can be used in forestry and agriculture, go up and down 25% dirt roads, do 400k km and still run fine.
>>518131542>What other car can be used in forestry and agriculture, go up and down 25% dirt roads, do 400k km and still run fine.a Ford F150
>>518117687>17,000 USD for this hunk of crap
>>518122403>>518121733PVRE SOVL
>>518131409>you can't stage shit welding and flaking paintworkSure you can.Wouldn't be worth it unless it was a corporate psyop level of fuckery though.I can personally vouch for the cheapness of the new heavy truck that was falling apart at the slightest stress.Retards here fought over Ford vs Chevy vs Dodge for years and it basically boiled down to "you get what you pay for" but getting an inferior product for a premium price is the new way of western markets.
>>518131715Is that true of post-2015 F-150s though?Owned 2 F-150s that were great trucks, then I hop in a new one and it looks and feels cheap and gimmicky.Hopefully, they didn't cut costs on the drive trains too much.
>>518117687These things cost about 5 grand new and are surprisingly good off road and on snow and ice.
USSR never produced good internal goods, ask anyone who is old enough to have lived through late USSR or at least the 90s.Effectively you were separated into tiers of a product, there was an everyman's product, there was a slightly improved version of the base, then there was the manager/scientist/director version of a product, and finally you had the government tier. Everything below manager tier was shit and required a lot of maintenance but it has a benefit that they were also easy to maintain and fiddle with.That being said that is not all of the tiers that actually existed, you had three more secret tiers. Yugoslavia/Poland tier which was often better than local stuff while still being affordable, then you had the GDR/East Germany tier product which was usually seen as the dream gold standard of socialist consumer goods, and then as the final mythical pull you had western goods and items which were treasured like an artefact.I'm not exaggerating, if you had a TV or a radio from USA somehow, it was a big enough event for your neighbors to regularly gather at your house to gawk at it.

>>518117165Dont they give these out for free when their offspring dies in the meatgrinder/wave6gorillion/smo
>>518121266Yeah, but if they used superior materials it would cost more. Design isn't bad. They just need better quality parts. Apparently this is why the Soviet era ones are preferred>>518121692Delusional. The Aurus used Porsche engineers and a Porsche engine and transmission. Where is the Russian engineering?
>>518123244I like Skoda, but it's hard to avoid comparing them to BMW. I wish Skoda would be bolder in doing our own thing.
>>518122403The difference is that the UK was developed and made with the technology available 70 years ago, nigger, which is exactly the same level that RU is now.

>>518122828How is a car that rolls over every time you turn well suited for anything?
>>518137911I'm not even a fag and neither am I new. Which country are you from?
>>518117165Imagine being so cheap that you skimp with on-frame welding, which the most structurally vital component of a vehicle. Jesus Christ, I would never buy or even drive one of these without gigamaxed life insurance.
>>518138012Top Gear admitted to tampering with the suspension and adding weights to the front corners of the car to get it to roll, because otherwise it won't.
>>51811716514 seconds in, couldn't tell if it's a car or a fridge
>>518117165almost as bad as a tesla
>>518119102these cars start to rust so fast, I have neighbours who bought just a year ago and exterior is already rusting
>>518117687I hope you paind for your weekly"Diamond-deluxe premium" subscription, so your car will:1. Warm your ass.2. Show only 15 seconds of unskippable ad on startup.3. Have cool feature when you can scream brand name to skip audio ad while driving.4. Get access to 4th and 5th gear (4 times a day).5. Unlock rear mirros.6. Unlock cruise mode.7. Enable anus-print verification, so it would not be stolen.
>>518132405Can confirm.. you have to add nothing was available and everything was expensive as shit. I am from Czech republic - we had it not "so bad" like in SSSR but still.. We had other tier - the export goods, also unobtainable for locals - all the Skodas all England us making fun even after fifty years were super luxurious nobody could buy.The situation was like this - If you wanted to buy a automatic washing machine which costed something like six month of salary, you had to wait for two years. Then you get one, but the model had something like 70% of warranty claims - I kid you not, so fucked up it was.. So you could wait another two years for a part which came fucked up again, or deal with it - if you were lucky, it was something "minor" (door could not be unlocked, water was leaking etc.) or repairable..I can't imagine how was it in SSSR if we had more advanced consumer goods..
>>518117687Based, doesnt look like every other globohomo optimized crossover on the market in the US
>>518142934I swear we don't get the same treatment only because we don't have parts for that.
>>518142934Don't forget instead of having to do a daily anus probe to update your sphincter profile, I prefer to pay the extra 50/m to get my profile uploaded to their hackerproof cloud database so I only need to take the probe once a month. Poorfags stay seething.

>>518117165my father used to tell me stories of what it was really like way way back in the old days, in some manufactuting plants they would replace internal engine parts with wooden ones stealing the actual parts and peoples bikes/cars would run just long enough for them to drive it away from an already done deal then the customer would be utterly fucked over lmao
>>518117165These cars look like they came straight out of an old video game
>>518117165Kek
>>518117687That retro design is cool. I would love it if it has a good price
