ProgRocker Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 Spotted this on BBC News 24 earlier this afternoon. The last Fiat 124-based Lada rolled off the production line this week.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-19684652 Watch out, Dacia! Also this was on Radio 4 a few days ago:http://news.bbc.co.uk/today/hi/today/newsid_9753000/9753446.stm Enjoy!
RedSparrow Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 Yeah I saw this too. Don't worry they are still making Samaras!That concept does indeed look like an ugly Dacia.
Shep Shepherd Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 Wouldn't it be easier (not to mention cheaper) to stick Lada badges on something like a Volvo S60 (also designed by Steve Mattin) and build it under licence in Russia?
AeroNautiCal Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 Just been on Radio 4, quite interesting too. For some reason, I cannot get iPlayer to open, so cannot post a link.
Lacquer Peel Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 Presumably it'd be expensive to build an S60 and stick Lada badges on it, alienating the target budget market, you Volvo licking fud.
