Its worse than I first thought, had a look today and I put my fingers through most of the driver side sill, the passenger side isnt as bad but still rotten,the bonnets knackered and the bottom of the a pillars have holes.
The saloon is worse. I did take some photos but I've got to transfer them to my laptop.
If I'm perfectly honest both are beyond saving, and only any good if you want bits like lights, seats, switches etc, though I won't be breaking them myself.

Thanks I don't want them to go to the scrapyard either, I was very embarrassed to be seen in the saloon when I was a teenager, but now I think Ladas are pretty damn cool!
If any non RR members want to email me, then it's gez at live.it Thanks.
I'm going to get some more photos tomorrow, try to drag them into a clearing and maybe give them a bit of a scrub up!

The Ladas can be sold, they're in Charing, Kent TN27, about 15 minutes from Maidstone.
The tractors in the background are my uncles, I'm not sure about the three wheeled tractor next to the lada.

Had a great day, I was parked next to a little Suzuki whizzkid which was getting a lot of attention, didn't manage to take many photos I was too busy admiring the cars! My favourite was a lovely Skoda/VW caddy in cream and green dropped on ronal turbos I think.
And that drone, I thought I had a bloody wasp in my car!

I've got a Facebook account, I'll try that, I hadn't thought of French eBay, so I'll have a look on there too, thanks for the advice!

I'm after an early Renault 5 grille for my 1990 5, such as this one:- Not my car, this ones for sale on ebay, but has the type of grille I want, but buying a whole car just for the grille is a bit extreme. Bit of a longshot, but you never know. Ta.

Had it a couple of times the last few days redirecting me to some dodgy looking site on my phone, Android/chrome browser.

Spotted a 5 with a RR sticker in the back window! First one I've seen. This would be my car, parked outside Medway Galv, I work there in the powdercoating bit! I live over in Gillingham. Probably looked filthy, covered in dust from the building work going on.

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but I've got 4 stainless inserts in a drawer somewhere, sold my golf ages ago, can throw them in a jiffy bag and in the post for free if you want some.
