Lada samara rally car for sale

[LADA & KOREAN P]

this is my 1988 lada samara

the car was originally proffesionally built for lada australia in perth,& was rallied successfully over there,winning p2 several times.

i bought the car from perth in 02,unfortunatly someone had swapped the motor,so i had a lada autosport built 1500 motor built & fitted,did the job well.

got the oppurtunity to get a screaming 1300 motor,so fitted that & went to p1.
this car has won it's class several times as a p1,and has surprised a lot of people what it can do.

now i am selling it,it now has a 1500 lada autosport worked motor fitted,which from memory has only done 1 or 2 events since a refresh.

other list of goodies include:

proflex suspension
low geared 5 speed box with lsd (been told it is a quaiffe box & lsd)
all safety equipment (extinguisher/ok boards/triangles etc)
fire bomb (removed when i got the car,but will include- easy for you to reinstall if required)
2x terraphones fitted (just incase had a mid stage fail)
2x map lights (same reason)
1x terratrip 202 (very accurate) with foot clearer
wired for an extra terratrip 303,but not sold with the car
2 seperate probes
pair of terraphone headsets
adjustable cam timing
helmet net
light bar with 4x piaa lights (90 low/130 high beams) blind spectators at 1,000 metres (brilliant lights) turn night into day.....
harnesses never expire (last time i checked)
workshop manual
parts catalogue (sometimes pictures are better than workshop man.)
log book
reg.has lapsed
around 30+ tyres,most only done 1 event
8 or so on spare rims
near new 2.5" exhaust system
100amp alternator (ea? falcon)
rolling spare shell,caged & painted (cost around $3,000)

as said,motor has done no more than 2 events since refresh
gearbox has only done 2 events since new bearings & synchro's (and these take std.lada bearings & synchros,so these parts are easy to get & are CHEAP)

these cars are VERY VERY cheap to buy parts for & to maintain. (and unfortunatly,very very reliable,even as a std.road car)
unlike the jap & other cars,you don't have to replace balljoints etc.every event.,& you don't have to take stacks of spares to every event.

i have never had to replace a balljoint/tierod end/wheel bearing etc since i have bought this car,& they weren't new when i picked it up,so shows you how strong these are (& people will know how strong the bodies are after the "LITTLE" roll i had in my last samara (which you can see the aftermath on ladaparts.com )

the only reasons i have ever dnf'd in this is through a plug coming off the bottom of the fusebox,& FUEL (lack of) (eh tony)

after or before every event,i had the car trucked to lada autosport at rocklea to make sure everything was 100%

this is a quick car,just a slow driver

this has NEVER failed scrutineering

included is a rolling shell,which has had a proffesionally fitted roll cage,also was newly painted before stored (when i bought this one.) (also rubin red),with white squares painted on doors. (log book)?
from memory,only missing front bumper & front screen

there are spares,but you will probably never have to use them
the only thing we ever really had to do at service was refuel (eh tony) ,never seemed to need anything else done

i have been checking around to see what this might be worth (& shocked at some of the high prices i was given),but am only looking for $5,750

get a good car for the 2011 season

don't hesitate to contact me for any info. or photos

What's the difference between a Samara and a Samaratin?

You can close the door on a Samaratin.

Ahh Lada jokes. why not.

There is a new 16 valve Lada.
It has 8 in the engine, and 8 in the radio.

A kid is walking down the road when a car pulls up beside him. The window winds down and a middle aged man peers out and says "Come into the car and I'll take you for a drive."
The kid refuses and walks on.
The car follows him and pulls up again. "C'mon" says the driver "Hop in and I'll give you a packet of Smarties".
Again the kid refuses and walks away.
The car follows him and pulls up beside him again. The driver steps out and says, "If you come for a drive I'll give you all the sweets you want".
The kid turns around and says "Look Dad, you bought the bloody Lada, now you deal with it!"

What's the difference between a Lada and a golf ball?
You can drive a golf ball 200 metres.

Man buys a Lada but after only one day of ownership returns it to the garage.
"It's no good mate, the car's no good for me" says the man
"Why not?" asks the car dealer.
"See that steep hill over there?" says the man pointing
"Well it will only get up to seventy five up there!"
"That's not bad really sir, for a Lada especially. I can't see a problem with that"
"Trouble is" said the man, " I live at ninety five!"

all jokes aside, this is a really good value car. ugly but good value.

fire bombs, ploflex, 2 intercoms, piaa lights, glass seats, 30 spare tyres. Seems to me like there's a lot of good bits for not a lot of dollars. Hopefully someone will recognise that shortly.

good luck with the sale.

[LADA & KOREAN P]

thankyou.

noooooooooo,she no ugly,she bootiful.....
wouldn't look so bad from the front if i had left original headlights in,just wanted brighter lights,so fitted twin headlights.

yep,she's a good weapon,pretty quick too in the right hands.

most people don't realise these samaras are actualy designed by porsche,then over engineered by lada,absolutely solid cars.

also has basicly new set of boots fitted.
the last event i did with her,i fitted a set of kumho ecsta r800l tyres,which only did 1 very muddy stage,so are still pretty much like new.

BUMP

[LADA & KOREAN P]

whilst moving sheds,found 2x open face helmets with terraphone headsets in good condition which will be included in sale.

[LADA & KOREAN P]

just had an email asking whether she's a 4wd
answer,no,she's FWD (or front wheel drive)

[gslrallysport]

Having rallied one of these, and knowing what trick bits are in it, I'm REALLY surprised you haven't been able to sell it Andy.... Good luck mate.

[LADA & KOREAN P]

thanks greg,

i'm surprised also,very very cheap car.
had a number of phone calls,asking "what's a lada" but i think it's because it's not as well a known model as toyota/holden/ford etc. the only reason it hasn't sold.

as we know,whoever does buy it will have a good enjoyable car.

andy.

forgot to add, MANY of the WRC guys started out in these things,look where they ended up.
