If you're gonna butcher the poor thing, at least put a bloody Ford engine in it, out of a (new) Mustang or somesuch nonsense. Hell, given its lower body weight, the motor out of a Focus ST would make it go like stink. Though my personal choice (money no object obvs) would be a Cosworth DFV... eddyramrod and Asimo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerzy Woking Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Sadly the Sirra 3 door will never get a V8 engine as long as it is in Spain. Restrictions on changing such things is extremely difficult to get through the ITV test. But not impossible. This Renault 4 "alledgedly" has a Clio 172 motor in it. The sound of the exhaust was earsplittingly loud. outlaw118 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That car is on the importers web site If it's going to be a new one then not long to get one: "CLASSIC NIVA PRODUCTION ENDS 31.12.2023 BUY NOW FROM £11,995+VAT* Final editions available now from the UK's most established new Lada specialist Imports had been stifled due to loss of EU type approval since 2016 but post Brexit a project to bring the car back to the UK is complete. Come and try our demonstrator." Not sure who is going to perform the "decent 2 year warranty" though I remember them from years ago, mainly for the rust in odd areas, like the bonnet. I still would though. EDIT just found this: Self registered cars must be presented for type approval and registered by the customer. Warranty waiver on sale required. Warranty can be purchased for £420+vat when car is granted a registration number and within 3 months of purchase and less than 1,500 miles.
