My dad bought one of those new in that very colour. Sold it to sis/BiL and it promptly caught fire in the middle of Lowestoft just by the bridge so it caused just* a little problem or two.

They must have been quite late to the Lada game, as Ladas had been available in the UK at least since 1976.

@vaughant I'm lucky to know a great painter, and he has sorted out my race bikes, road bikes and Van's over the last 10 years. He does all sorts of stuff, from a bike side panel to full blown colour change on Ferraris. He is not cheap, but you get what you pay for (even at mates rates).

He was doing some work on this last week.

That looks clean. Seems that orangey colour was popular as, whenever a mk1 emerges, they always seem to be this colour. Unless it's the same car every time?

I'm not sure there's a market for an Auto s12 at £3500. Seems so odd when the vastly superior (but probably rotten) S13s use to be £700. That is 15 years ago now so who knows?

It's got those funny little Nissan headlight guards fitted. Ultimate shite would be the Scandinavian zone cars that came with pukka headlight wash/wipe systems.

When a Delboy Robin Reliant* is just too common, why not have another TV replica from another over-rated comedy*? Currently £500, an a guarantee that you'll get to cop a feel of Emily Atack's funbags. Probably.

And more, a potentially broken 'Gooner 2.2dci 150

Intermittent Engine Management and Check Injection Lights On -> Offside Front and Offside Rear Windows Do Not Seem to Want to Go Down -> Black Smoke Emitted From Exhaust When Revved

First and third faults are probably related, and the other switches? Who knows? Because French? Currently £100

If you're really bored, then feel free to read the overly wordy ad.... Matey does seem to contradict himself a bit though....

 I am told by various mechanics/AA technicians that it is a sought after engine by VW & Volvo enthusiasts that should go on forever provided you service it

 

have just spent £704 on the car with invoices dated 12/12/2019 to prove it at my local garage to cover:
- Oil filter change and new oil.
- Replacement tensioner, idler pulley, crank pulley, belt and new timing belt Cover.
currently it is a non-runner and will need to be towed away or picked up on a flat bed. The engine has ceased 

Well, spunking £700 on it was well worth it then....

What do we think - Borked sensor / injector ?

My first thought is an injector, but I'm not going to stake any money on it. 

Hasn't someone on here got one,  I remember seeing a collection Fred not long ago.... @sdkrc?
