1989 LADA NIVA

SOLD £8295

Could ACA’s Niva be the best in the UK? Certainly, finding a better one would be a tough call. A two-owner, 21,000 miles-from-new example with plenty of history, a decent look all round failed to throw up any disappointments, with gleaming paint smothering fantastically straight and uncorroded bodywork.

The simple, hard-wearing and relatively spartan interior was in equally good order, meaning that all-in-all this was a surprisingly pleasing offering that performed remarkably well in the sale.
