You might get a few more years out of it if you washed it with diesel, let it dry out, and give it a good blast of an air compressor

An awful thing to do to a child. Remember a school friend whose father won one.

Wouldn’t mind one now tho...

I’d still take one over the dire overpriced hatchbacks on stilts that are as passed off as “SUVs” these days.

You could say overpriced anyhow. How the name of God so many people keep buying new ones is beyond me. Are car sales up or down this year after so many working from home I wonder

Car sales are up on last year anyway. That wouldn't be hard though

The stats are depressing. The most common sale is a grey, diesel manual hatchback in the A3 CO2 band. Christ that's a boring choice of anything. Small, grey, underpowered. Ughhhh

That Lada is dear enough for what it is. LHD only and £16,995GBP inc VAT. Or if you self register it, £11,995+VAT+Registration costs.
I think no warranty on it - import only.

You could get a Dacia Duster for that type of money with 4WD and dealer backup.

Not sure who the target market is - apart from weirdos and oddballs.

The farmers journal had I’m pretty sure.

Jcb have a backlog of orders running thru next year apparently. Taking on a good share of staff in the factories. Don't think there will be any drop in prices for a while...

No, she just about drives it haha. I'm not pushed about driving anything new myself so I don't mind keeping the car fresh(ish)

May she wear well. Always wondered what happens if you roll back a bit when the shoe is down. Will it dig in?

Thanks, wouldn't like it to happen, more than likely bend or break something.

Shoe is supposed to put the slurry onto the ground better and can spread on heavier covers, that's the sales pitch anyway, the difference in price wasn't huge either.
