Having spent some time in Moscow, I'm not surprised. The amont of broken down clapped-out Ladas on the side of the road is unreal!

I do like the stripped out drag racer - he must be pulling high 60s or low 70s in that..

The Pic of the one filled with apples seems to be taken from a Merc, but it could be just a lada with a Merc badge. :lol:

FTOs? Wow, that's a surprise. I'd have thought they were virtually unheard of in Left Hand Drive countries.
