1997 Lada Riva review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only problem has been to replace the ignition module which once left me stranded. Also had a minor brake fluid leak shortly after buying it.
General comments?
A rugged sluggish basic no nonsense little car with lots of character. The steering is a bit on on the heavy stuff and it has a thirsty engine. But I am keeping mine!
