  A Grand Monday: Lada Samara 10 Oct 2016 (News)
  Being the 1.5GL model, this example is quite an upmarket Samara and has a number of delightful features including a non-functional fuel gauge, an aftermarket induction kit and a bloody great dent in the back door, all of which give it tremendous character. It also has a Peugeot 205 XS carburettor conversion, though from the experience of once trying to source new old stock fuel system parts for a Samara 1.5, we can tell you that this is most definitely a good thing.
