Lada Niva with Front and Rear Diff locks on Killy Loop | Killingworth | 4wd | 4x4 | нива |

A Lada Niva out on the Killy Loop track just north of Sydney, Australia. Testing out the front and rear Blokka diff locks. Very happy with the auto lockers, now just need to work on the suspension a bit more and sorting the carby jetting and float height , it was not liking some of the steeper angles. All in all a great day out.
The music backing track track is "Night Owl" by the artist "Broke for Free".

[@MrJon2630]

I have a '04 built Lada Niva 1.7 with fuel injection. Never let me down and even in the cold where most 4x4 vehicles get bogged as of their weight, the Niva just says gimme more. This paint job and the video is really good. Good job.

[@MrJulianneave]

My first car here in Australia was a niva. When the engine stalled in this and you had to crank it a bit to restart the sound bought back memories haha. Loved the niva, but very high maintenance vehicles. As they say about the niva, "Always half broken, never breaks down"

[@ozniva9724]

I had one as my first car years ago and I felt the same when I heard the starter and the gentle rumble and whine of the transfer case. There is no car quite like them. I learnt with my first one to keep on top of it in terms of maintenance.

[@philipdobson8941]

Back in the late 80s and early 90s I ran two new Nivas.Whilst the second spent its life as a family workhorse the first did all sorts of challenges. It regularly launched and towed a small sailing cruiser and often found itself ploughing through snow in the Cairngorms. Whilst living in Lancaster it explored rarely visited corners of the English lake district-obscure tracks to abandoned slate quarries being a speciality.In Scotland a still accesible Corrieayrack pass and the old Black mount road across Ranoch Moor come to mind.I also have a memory of sitting atop a peat hag on a wet darkening late afternoon I had just pushed Saltergate as far as possible(Lancaster to Ribble Valley) and had to reverse back in the dank and dreary weather. Sad to hear of their demise.

they definitely can present a challenge at times, but if you keep at them and perform the right mods and maintenance they can be pretty reliable. Great cars.

[@rickhendroff2108]

I'm so glad you mentioned that...I had one for 5 years back in the early 90's...it broke down every 2 weeks and was too afraid to take it out of the metro area! But when it worked, it was great! Pity it was so unreliable at that time - mine was a faulty ignition module fault - and it was well known in owners circles that the gearbox would start to fail after 50 000km....electrics were dodgy and it was soooo slow...but it could go places many of my friends in their larger 4wd just couldn't...I had Pirelli Scorpions as a great compromise road/ light trail tyre and the car was stock standard....great design but so badly built :(

that paintjob reminds me of arma 3 painjob on tanks, like some kind of "digital futuristic" paintojob, but i like it. can you explain me why do you need those pieces of metal on the right and on the left of the tire on the back of the car ? do you use it for transporting canister of fuel ? and another question, it's not better to put the antenna on the "roof" of the car ? let's say you need to go across a river those the antenna not get damaged by the water ?

[@ozniva9724]

MIRAAK apocrypha you are correct, the brackets on the spare wheel carrier are for fuel cannisters. The radio antennae is better on the roof from a reception point of view but where I wheel the trees and foliage can close in and easily rip at the antennae if it was on the roof, so it is common for people to mount the antenna on the bull bar at the front. They usually are well sealed and don't seem to suffer even with river crossings etc.
