Vaz 2101. I was exaclty 1 month unborn when my grandpa purchased the 83 model. It was beautiful........ at that time, and very expencive too.
It had no luxury at all, drove like a tank, and with only 1.2L, 78hp, engine was very uneconomical. However, it was a russian car, and my Granpa had it for almost 15 years. Unfortunatelly you probably can't find one here, in US, unless you go to Canada. Fiat is very similar to it. (Vaz 2101 was build from Fiat model)

Nik, I always thought that the car you've shown was a Russian built Fiat 128 called the Lada. I'm not familiar with the Vaz nameplate.
Spacebo, Ronovitch.
