Lada Off-road Vehicles: Books - History and Models

Lada Niva - Die Gelände-Legende

When it came onto the market, the Cold War was still in full swing and cars from the "Eastern Bloc" were as rare as they were laughed at in West Germany. But once a Lada Niva really got going, the only person who was grinning broadly was the driver!
By Western standards, the off-roader from the Russian Togliatti plant was loud, slow and poorly manufactured, but it had four-wheel drive and the unwavering persistence of a buffalo.

In this volume, Alexander F. Storz sheds light on the history of the legendary off-road vehicle, describing its development, technology and models in contemporary advertising materials, photos, brochures and press reports.
