1980 Lada Niva review from Costa Rica
"Excellent car, still running"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This car has 210 000 kilometers, it's still running with the same engine, though the valve system was replaced.
General comments?
This car has 25 years and it's still running with the same engine. It uses a lot of gasoline, but the parts are cheap. I have to take it to service once a year and the car is very thankful and reliable.
