A fully restored example Becoming increasingly rare, making this a highly desirable classic A classic symbol of Soviet-era engineering and design Our exceptionally well restored Lada 2106 is a classic symbol of Soviet-era engineering and design. Produced in the 1980s, this particular model represents one of the most iconic cars from AvtoVAZ, designed for durability, simplicity, and affordability during a time when practicality was paramount in the Soviet Union. The Lada 2106, a development of the Fiat 124, became one of the most successful and widely produced cars of its time, earning a reputation for being almost indestructible, thanks to its robust engineering and ease of repair. The Lada 2106 has a fascinating history. Originally built for domestic markets, these cars were known for enduring harsh conditions and often found themselves in some of the most remote regions of Eastern Europe and beyond. Its straightforward mechanics meant it could be repaired with minimal tools and spare parts, which contributed to its widespread popularity. This particular car has been lovingly maintained, escaping the fate of many that were used as workhorses and eventually left to the elements. The car has been carefully stored and preserved, retaining much of its original charm and integrity, a rarity for vehicles of this era. The original paintwork remains in remarkable condition, and it still proudly displays the period-correct chrome accents and fittings that make it instantly recognisable. The interior is just as captivating, with original upholstery and the no-nonsense dashboard design that Lada was known for. The simplicity of the interior reflects its utilitarian roots, yet it offers plenty of space and comfort for both driver and passengers. All instruments and controls are in perfect working order, providing both nostalgia and functionality in equal measure. The 2106 was designed with practicality in mind, and this model remains as true to that vision today as it was when it first rolled off the production line. Mechanically, this Lada is equipped with the 1.6-litre engine that became synonymous with the 2106 model. Known for its reliability, this engine was designed to be easily maintained and has a long track record of dependability. This car, having been meticulously cared for, runs smoothly and is a joy to drive. Despite its age, the vehicle has been regularly serviced, with its history and paperwork intact, making it not just a piece of automotive nostalgia but a fully functional classic ready for the road. Over time, the Lada 2106 has become a sought-after classic due to its cultural significance and increasing rarity. As one of the longest-produced models in the Lada lineup, it holds a special place in the hearts of car enthusiasts and collectors alike. This is an opportunity to own a piece of Soviet automotive history that represents an era when cars were built for resilience and simplicity. Whether you're an enthusiast looking to expand your collection or someone who appreciates the character and charm of this unique vehicle, this Lada 2106 is a prime example of Soviet-era motoring at its finest.
