The Lada is a stalwart symbol of Soviet Russia. It has also been considered one of the worst cars ever made. Its heyday, if it had one, was in the 1970s, but a substantial number of vehicles remain on the roads today, and hold a special place in the hearts and minds of many Russians. To tell the story of this much-ridiculed car, the filmmaker Dieter Deswarte, the cinematographer Annegret Sachse and the sound engineer Yulia Glukhova travelled the Russian north, from Murmansk to Siberia, to find where the cheap and easily repairable - if reliably unreliable - vehicles are still in action. Along the way, they got to know a colourful range of drivers who recount the complexities of Lada ownership, and, more important still, show the car on the road - or sometimes what it takes to get it on the road. Undercutting broad Western stereotypes of a certain Russian dourness, the filmmakers find humour, warmth and kindness in their driving adventures across the icy landscape.
Lada debuted in 2014 as part of the award-winning omnibus documentary Cinetrain: Russian Winter. An ambitious and inventive filmmaking initiative, the Cinetrain project sent 21 filmmakers from around the world to all corners of Russia to explore its culture through the spectrum of stereotypes - from mail-order brides to heavy drinking. The project was inspired by the work of the influential Soviet Russian filmmaker Aleksandr Medvedkin (1900-89) who, in 1934, built a mobile film studio inside a train before setting out to document life across the country.

One of the rare videos where Lada is not labeled as a "communist" car just a Lada
Or even Soviet!
It's still Soviet, Communist car... Like it or not ))))
@@user-ku3jy9vd7n What he means, is that he’s sick of some pompous cunts calling it communist and then shitting all over it for not being able to do what it wasn’t supposed to, while saying “it’s a communist car it’s automatically bad herhehrhehhe”
@@user-ku3jy9vd7n We like it!
It's not a car. It's a lifestyle.
It was designed and built with a purpose: easy, reliable, spartan transportation.
You either love it or hate it.
I had a Niva 2121, and I loved it.
Thanks for the video.
I have too VAZ 2121 Niva 1.6 :-) Very good car.
I bought a new Lada Niva 2121 in 1997 and spent my time in the garage fixing it. Until it was stolen in 1998/ Good riddance. Russian cars are a joke.
@@user-ku3jy9vd7n I have not problems with my 1.6 Niva. The car is from 1993 Year.
@@vilemmitlohner5810 1) in the USSR cars for export were assembled from different parts, made of different materials, to the last bolt.
2) I still don't believe you, sorry.
3) If you own a car made for domestic market and stating you have no issues, then you are 146% liar.
Having said that, you post is not relevant to mine, anyway. My Niva broke on the way from the store!
And give me a break, I lived in the USSR and Russia long enough, to know the true opinion of Russians about Soviet cars.
There are some hardcore people of course, who will be either nostalgic, or just praising anything Soviet, but when foreign cars started being available in Russia, it was only the matter of money to decide if you want to replace a Lada (Zhiguli).
@@user-ku3jy9vd7n But, i am from Czech Republic. No from Russia. My VAZ 2121 Niva is for West Germany shop. The car have not problem with quality. Motor is with Catalysator. There have been no serious problems during the whole time I have a car.
I am a lady from a small city in Kentucky, USA and the scene at 12:00 really struck me as so relatable. We really are so similar Russians and Americans. At least working class ones. The mother and children huddled in the car with the father outside trying his repair. They all are awaiting patiently but nervously, seeing what can be done. We have all been there. Although for my family it was a Ford, theirs a Lada. The experience is the same. It really struck me. Sending love and respect to the Russian people. Hoping for better times ahead. 🥂
back in the 70s in Vietnam, only the wealthy has a Lada. and a Volga is something no one ever even dreams of.
Same story here, today we call ladas "the mercedes of the east" as back then the price was comparable to buying a mercedes in the west
I was in Cuba about 8 years ago and a taxi driver told me his dream is to get a lada instead of his old Yankee car that was held together by the holy spirit
@@akoshutoczki3284
Wouldn't the "Yank tanks" draw in more fares for a cabbie, though? At least in the tourist areas.
@@bcubed72 It's only one ride for each tourist. You then realise there's no AC and the fuel smell is absolutely sickening. This chap told me that due to lack of spare parts all those beautiful American cars now run on engines out of anything really. For the Russian cars there are lots of parts available so there's no down time.
@@bcubed72 most of those cars are 70+ years old, they guzzle gas and is falling apart
Infact most American cars in Cuba actually have Chinese or Lada(fiat) engines in them because the original ones have bogged down and there are no spareparts to repair them
The lada meanwhile have been produced and is still produced since the 1960s with the same engine and the only difference being fuel injection added on newer ones.
Back in Czechoslovakia, when my dad was young, he bought a Lada with my mom. He says that they were some of the best cars that a normal person could buy back then and they were quite costly. Better quality than Skodas had back then. He is in his sixties now, changed many different cars since then, now drives a Kia. Not long ago he bought this old Lada 2105 again, to keep as a nostalgic piece and to drive to car meets. It is a great car with a character and requires a quite skilled driver to drive. I have a Mazda MX-5 which is fun to drive, but driving this Lada is a great experience. I hope to keep it for a long time. Anyways, great video, really enjoyed it. :)
Greetings from Czech republic. I have a Lada Niva and Skoda 120L. Both cars are very good.
Kia will be made in slovenia
Мы до сих пор на этих автомобилях двигаемся. Но наши земляки свои же автомобили ненавидят и стремятся купить что угодно, лишь бы это было произведено не в России...
@@DubrovskyVolgovod В Чехии аналогично. Тот, кто водит машину «Шкода», тоже идиот.

I like lada , they are simple to repair. Anyone can repair them.
100% correct!
i have lada 2107 on carburetor engine, one day i repaired it whith 2 wrenches and screwdriver, but with injector engines it not so easy
Its not, old toyotas are much easier to repair, in lada everything is rusty and not reliable. Nowadays most of mechanics in Russia will refuse to fix lada, because to much troubles
And that's their only advantage.
@@TheKacper2001 I have never understood what is "easy to repair" means, considering Ladas? Almost any golf class car is easy to repair, any small SUV. But most of them are also more reliable then Ladas

Во-во-во жиза😁

Надо всего лишь подтянуть винт с левой стороны козырька.
Детством веет от этого видео, вспоминаю как отец меня на семёрке зимой возил в школу, и вообще сколько воспоминаний было связанно с этой машиной. Дед на крышу копейки сажал, потом семёрку купил и семёрку давал водить.
The next film you can write about Kamaz trucks, all the multitude of tricks to keep them running through the winter and all the colourful characters who drive them.
I had one in the 80...1600 ES...from UK and special edition...with a lot of extras...alloy wheels...some leather...vinyl roof...special audio and lights when opening front doors for safety with electrical aerial...rather nice and fairly good honestly for that time
Drive it to France...Italy...90 average on motorways, not much trouble but a but heavy on gas and steering too hard Really in town...
Still, Good memories indeed!
I am the owner of a Lada, I will never sell it. Already 4 cars have changed and I do not sell Lada, as a memory of the past and as a hobby! :)

I love ladas and this video is so cool because it's so unique
i live in mongolia, yesterday i bought a lada 2107 from sain-shand a small city and towed it by my friends toyota prius to capital, ulaan-baatar which is like 500km, both rear tires went flat but managed to bring it to the capital, it was like 3 days adventure and i will never forget sleeping in it on the side of narrow coutry road :D
lada is very rare in mongolia because during 2008 beijing olymp everyone sold their lada and gaz cars to salvage and exported it to china
I'm Italian and I lived 2 years in Anapa, I purchased a Zhiguli 21013 bright red...i really loved her.
21013 is closed relative to fiat model, they look identical
@@metalbird89 yes it’s the Fiat 124, is not similar is exactly the same. In 1968 USSR bought Fiat production line and Italian engineers and laborers worked in Togliatti tu build Vaz factory and start the production.
In East Germany these Ladas were considered to be top of the line premium cars. Water cooled four stroke engine with four cylinders and a body made from metal. Pure luxury compared to the Trabant which had none of this.
Trabbi has a cultstatus just like the Lada.I like German people, but the only German car I really liked were the older Mercedes end of the '80's. I remember in Serbia the Wartburgs estate versions big chunky indestructable only 2 stroke but could carry a lot of weght, farmers used it to sell the crops on the markets, filled with watermelons . Fond memories, my uncle had a Ami 8 break, still etched in my memory,.

Loved this video . I had 2 ladas and they were both outstanding cars .....tough , easy to service and great for the Scottish Highlands . I did an enormous mileage in both and replaced the second with a subaru that crumbled in three years .
I love the old car styles especially the soviet ones because they give you the russian feeling and they nice af
That was fun. I stumbled upon this video by pure chance and I'm glad I did. It's funny how old cars bond to us.
Can’t believe you have no comments. I enjoyed this film quite a bit.
Very emotional movie. It is a pity that so few views.
I got really emotional because it's not just a car, it's a way of living, an essential tool and so much more. Plus the different opinions and justifications for having it..
I have seen it, soo 10K +
My uncle in Romania had a Lada from the 80’s. He bought it used, drove it for 30 years and just recently got rid of it without my knowledge. He gave it to a Romanian version of “cash for clunkers” type program like we had under Obama. He ended up getting a Skoda Octavia or something like that. I’m in the US and only talk to him a few times a year and I always ask how the Lada is doing, and last time we spoke around Christmas, he gave me the news. I was devastated. I wish he kept it for me to put around in when I go on vacation there. They’re really good cars, and he took meticulous care of it. He still has a Soviet tractor from the 60’s that he can’t find parts for anymore so he’s forced to make his own parts on his lathe.
I had 2 Lada Rivas 1.2 X 1.5. . Never broke down .built like tanks. . . My friends had ford cars X Vauxhall's. . They always broke down X always asked for a tow home . .that shows you ladas are good cars. .love them. .they took the piss out of my Lada. I had the reliable car out of all of them

once I had an old Lada Nova. I loved it. Not elegant, but it worked well, enough space and easy to repair. When you looked a bit after it there were not much to repair anyway. It was cheap in Insurance too. Of course all the BMW and so on were all much more fancy and faster and a lot of horsepower.... But I must say I liked my Lada a lot. It never let me down.
The car has so much quirk it almost feel like a human being
A fleet of ladas were used as taxis in Iqaluit, Nunavut. Previously Frobisher bay, northwest territory, Canada.
Used for 20 years or so and sold on to private owners. Also canabilised to keep the rest going. A fine utility vehicle suitable for the cold. Iqaluit is in the Canadian Arctic.
I own a 1990 lada niva in Greece.. i bought it 1 year ago and i am impressed.. and Nooo it's not like new at all.. it had a hard life the owners before me was farmers,hunters etc when and it's not in great shape burns a bit of oil etc.. i painted it myself with spray paint because it was a wreck but this thing is a beast it won't say no to anything i have driven it for 10.000km in a year in all conditions.. snow gravel rocks dirt sand in temperatures from -15 to +42 it just don't care.... The russian know very well how to make cars

@@LukeTEvans You can't, you can import a new Lada Niva, but not the Fiat 124 based one was discontinued in 2017
I have had many cars,from a Toyota Celica ST coupe,a BMW 520,a Audi 100 LS,a Saab 99 GL that I swop for a lovely Lada Combi 1.500,all good cars but the Lada was the one I liked the must! It is true .
I had a Riva in the early 90s in the UK. It had it's share of problems, but it was easy to work on. Used to service it myself too
Excellent.
Good subject, good composition, good editing.
Liked the story.
OMG this brought back memories! I drove Ladas as a teenager, when my dad got the idea he wanted a simple, basic car (ended up with three: one to drive, while we were working on the other, and a third for parts...) The woman manually pumping the fuel, the sun visor that wouldn't stay up, swinging the rear end around on an icy road! And it took me a minute to calculate what that guy said at the end...my dad's 1982 Lada would be 37 years old now! Maybe it's still out there somewhere...
Quite a few people are still driving 1980s Dodge's and Chrysler's where I live.
Sadly in mexico lots of 80's american cars are still rolling
говно эти ваши Dodges и Cryslers много топлива потребляют, сложны в ремонте и абсолютно не семейные
shit, your Dodges and Cryslers consume a lot of fuel, are difficult to repair and absolutely not family
Yeah they are much better then ladas :D
@@MrRromy not so far in the shitty quality tbh
Lada is an old Lady, my grand mother called it also Ladya (in slovene as a "boat")
That is interesting, because the name Lada comes from the sail boats that plied the Volga river years ago. It seems your grandmother understood the name correctly.☺
@@Alex462047 The city Ladoga also derives from "Lada" (Ladyaga: where "Yaga" was equal to the word "Baba Yaga" and norse Ygdrasil (Yaga Drasil) ...
Russians have lost many words from old Slovene (Slavic). Including the Dual conjugations of verbs. (jaz (i) vem / znam (i know),... midva veva / znava (you 2 know), vidva vesta / znata (you 2 know), onadva vesta / znata (they 2 know), mi vemo / znamo... (they (plural) know...verb "vedeti" (to know. from "Veda" (knowledge).
Also note that the old name of Novgorod or "New City" was called Slovensk by Ilmen Slovenes, ruled by the dynasty of Krivich, the center of this city was called Gorodišče (Gorodishche)...from which later derived "Novo Gorodishche" or "Novi grad" or "Nov gorod"... Krivichi were a dynasty along Riurik or Rurik, that is why Russia is still until today known as "Krievs"(called by Latvians and Lithuanians)...
@@Alex462047 Volga was named after the "Volkhvs or Volhvs"... or mages (also a name for kings). The old name for the Volga river was Ra...also check the "Ra" god in Egypt... and the boat which was carrying the dead in the After life...and this "Ladya" (Ladushka) Lady - Lada goddess was called "Hathor... Note that "Hathor" was simply mother of god Horus or Horo which was simply old Ukrainian, Russian god Hors or Horo, the word remained until today as the name for Horovod dance
@@VendPrekmurec That's a subject I don't know much about, but sounds interesting. There are a number of towns by name of Gorodishchi (Городищи) in different regions around European Russia.
The Egyptian connection is not one I've ever heard. The boats, as used historically, and in the Lada emblem, were used by traders and river pirates, so I heard.
@@Alex462047 old name of Russia was also "Gardarike" or "Gardariki" after many "Gards" (like Midgard...). Gard is Grad or Gorod. Stargard in current Germany was the main capital of Vagri or later "Variagi"(not Vikings)... After their unification with Ilmen Slovenes from Slovensk they moved their capital city to Novgorod (Slovensk).
Back in the 80's my mates Grandfather sold Ladas to Russian sailors that came into port in Belfast! They would go to his place, do the deal then drive them back, no insurance, probably no other paperwork, load them on the ship and take them back home. Must have been cheaper for them rather than buying one at home.
Precious beautiful film of a history of machine and the connection with people . Thank you
Gives me flashbacks to last winter when I drove a Ford Fiesta Mk1 with
manual choke as my winter car, was in Norway, so was pretty cold too,
hehe
Wish there be more videos like that, without any hate towards Lada, and more about how they play their part in people’s lives. Great video, thank you!
Ten years ago my father bought Lada 111 1.6l 16V and we had it up to 2020. It was really good car and first things about car maintenance and repairing I learned on that car. Since my first rides in that Lada I started to dream about my own. We bought in 2019 Lada Kalina 1119 and year later the old 111 was sold unfortunately. I was sad about that, so I collected some money (about 450€) and bought 2003 Lada 110 1.5 GLI 16V. It was in terrible condition and now it's true Russian beast on four wheels. Especially during winter 😎
I said to myself that I will never sell that car!
I have a Lada 111 1,5 16V which I bought as a two year old car in 2005. Unfortunetly it is now quite rusty and since 2016 not in trafic anymore. I drove 11 years in that car. It was very reliable and cheap to own. Still have it, can´t get myself to scrap it.
This video is about a lot more than just the Ladas, great video.
You can sense how thick the steel is just by hearing the door thump while closing. At the end of the day, its a car that would be able to start tomorrow and could run on fumes while covering snow ridden roads.
The same mate also got one as his first car, probably courtesy of his Grandfather again. Anyway, after a few months he rolled it into a field, we both walked away luckily, they were built tough and the field was soft and muddy. Went back the next day to recover it and someone had knicked his tax disc! Afterwards, I got my first car, a Ford Capri, that was a rust bucket. Happy times.
Thanks! That was great!
Enjoyed this short film very much, was well done.
Sweet video, a slice of russian life. Really enjoyable work.
Amazing what Russia has done with the 1966 Fiat 124. I live in the Washington DC area and saw one on the road many years ago.
About 20 years ago, a friend picked up a '51 Moskvitch. I helped him get it running and got to drive it.
More recently, I saw a black Volga sedan for sale, parked at a gas-station. But it was Sunday and the owner wasn't around to ask about it.
Lada unlike most cars have common life span of 30 years my uncle had lad for 24 years.
Hi from Greece! My Lada Samara from 1992 works perfectly!
Excellent film. Congratulations ! Very nostalgic.
Excellently done documentary!
The old ladas (with rear wheel drive) are actually Fiats who have been altered and upgraded for the hard russian winters and have a better quality of steel. They descend from the Fiats 124 and 125.
The design is very cool
Reminds me of my 83 Starlette. Rear wheel drive, small engine , no heat but ran like a champ.
Great video, thanks!
I like how that man arguet with cops for a whole day lol
The first Lada rolled off the assembly line in 1970. In 1971 they got it started.
Great video
Cuba is full of them! Love them Ladas. They go forever.
You can feel it when the snow crunches... Ahh, that noise....
I have a Trabant 601, and I love it
Like all Soviet Cars. Greetings from Austria
lol, you know there were also estate versions of the trabi?
@@Pfirtzer Yes i have one. Called „Universal“
I would love to own one. They remind me of the Ford 300 6 cylinder and the Chevy small block very dependable. I really enjoyed your video
“Buckle up”, yeah like that will help when the lada ends up crunched in a crash
It doesn’t get crunched if you crash less than 45km/h
You must be a fool, the steel used is thicker and chances are your dinky toy of plastic is into oblivion after a crash.
@@Pfirtzer that’s not how crumble zones work 😂🤣
I own a 1992 Lada Niva 1.6 and I love it. I live in the Woods of central Italy and my Niva is the perfect car. She Is what I Need. She climbs like hell!!! I love my Niva
We had Lada 2105, but 2107 was so luxurious for me, wow
The silent scenes with girl studies to drive is priceless. I know her feelings - this cars has no power steering.
saya suka sekali dengan film ini, keren.. i love lada
Good video. Thanks.
Очень душевно, и по-русски
The biggest mistake is to compare a Lada to modern cars - it is a kind of its own - (mostly) reliable, easy to maintain and repair and if you know how to drive it right - nearly unstoppable.
If you drive a Lada and enjoy it, you are almost understanding the russian soul.
This makes me appreciate my 2004y toyota rav4 much more. I will go for a drive soon.

Что это за Артхаус
If I am not mistaken, but that larger blue Lada is not a Soviet Lada. It was made in the 1990s. The 1 parked beside it was (the model I am not sure about the actual car)
I would not mind drving BMW, but I do mind PAYING for "computer monitored" electronic monsters. After my 2 Ladas -89 -95, I`ve had several "fine" cars, but I am NOT in love with "rolling computers", I have NO use for "tools" or mechanic skills with them. ................................
I agree.I'm a lada owner and i'm happy with it
Cars before "Y2K" are indeed the best!
Russia has Lada (today belong to Renault Group), Indonesia has Kijang (Toyota). And Lada in Indonesian language means Pepper!
Legendary "Kijang" a combination of SUV and MPV. Made in Indonesia worldwide marketed except Europe and America. Kijang means Deer but also stands for "Kerjasama Indonesia-Jepang" (Collaboration of Indonesia and Japan) Kijang since 1970.

They used to sell those cars in the 80's early 90's in Canada they sold that one model the Samara oh there was as well the Niva man that takes me back:))
They were a better higher quality car than previous models plus as well some optional features like WOW automatic transmission actually I'd buy one with that option I never did learn how to drive a car with a manual gear box too late now it might cost me what let's see automatic transmission am/fm radio,rear window defroster maybe,glove box oh were cloth seats available that would cost me at most $1000 Canadian much later model though 90's model 1991,1992 not sure beyond that going by memory feel free to correct me about when the automatic transmission was available for those cars sold in Canada as well as what you could get as extra cost options at the dealership oh not just Canada but the United States just curious thanks cheers:))
