Just got back from a trip to Moscow and I'm still buzzing from spotting a mint condition VAZ 2106 on the cheap. The car's got a low mileage, original interior, and the seller wants to let it go for a steal - something like 500,000 rubles (around $7,500 USD). Has anyone else checked this one out or have any experience with the VAZ models?

What's the story behind this VAZ 2106? Looks like a sweet fixer-upper to me. Anyone else spotted any good deals on old Ladas or Soviet vehicles around Moscow?

What's the deal with buying a car in Russia? I've got a friend who's been trying to get a Lada outta Moscow for years. How much is this VAZ 2106 gonna set him back?

"Haha, that's quite a vintage ride you've stumbled upon! Not sure about the condition of the VAZ 2106, but the deal seems too good to pass up. You should give it a spin and see how she handles"

"Dude, you're crazy for buying a VAZ 2106 in Moscow, those things are notoriously unreliable. But props for finding a sweet deal, I'm guessing it's a parts car or a project you're gonna wrench on yourself?"
