| OurNiva just after purchase in 1992 |
Welcome to my LADA NIVA home page. My name is Robin and I have a passion for the Lada Niva.
My Niva has undergone many changes as I like to be innovative, maximise the Niva
attributes and just like tinkering. It is not possible to include a detailed list or
instructions for the modifications or improvements that have been completed,
so have a look anyway. I will Email some info with 'jpegs' on specific items when requested.

After researching the Lada Niva, its body style, mechanical superiority, superb handling, charisma and 4x4 simplicity when they first arrived in Australia in the early 80's, it was decided I must have one some day. Ownership occurred in November 1992 when I bought a standard white 1989 Niva (which had 114,000 kilometres on the odometer), from a second hand car dealer who didn't know a thing about the vehicle, other than it could make him money at sale time.On the other hand I knew what I wanted after looking at 6 or more other Nivas over thepast month, so pounced on the bargain.

Doesn't look deep, but the water was over the headlights.
On an another part of this track the water was over the bonnet a couple of times.
Location is 3 hours south from Perth W.A.
