Hello everyone! I'm looking for any working Lada classic (VMZ 2101) that is below £1600, where I can push up higher if I must, but my budget really is tight because I'll need some money left over for repairs ... and well life! (Sorry!) EDIT: 18/04/2016 LOOK BELOW FOR MORE INFORMATION
Situations where I could pay more: Small milage; little rust; YELLOW!
I am not looking to make money off this: this is purely me being obsessed with Lada and really wanting it for my first car. I'll do my best to take care of it so don't fear neglect!

*sigh* Made my first every FB account just to ask. I can't wait to burn that up!! It's worth it, though. Thanks for the advice.

UPDATE 18/04/2016
Basically, I have widened my search to include any SOVIET ERA Lada, the Fiat 124, Tofaş (Murat 124) and the SEAT 124.
Thanks for looking!!

There are loads of them on Auto Scout 24 - Google it. Look for Fiat 124 coupe, they have saloons and coupes together, and a few 125's as well.

Import costs can be higher than the car I want to buy; no chance to see what I have bought. Knowing my luck the engine will be supported by 1 atom of iron, while everything has has oxidised to iron III. I've tried friending people on facebook (don't use social media but this had to be an exception) that could help but ultimately it doesn't help that me: a complete stranger who can't even legally drive yet is asking someone in Bulgaria to drive 1 hour to see if a 40 year old car is rusty or not. See? It's so much easier here in the UK.

I hate having to rely on luck. I just wish there was 'fool proof' plan to getting one. Thanks for the advice.
