Hang on a minute? 1970's utilitarian little Lada 1200 had a 5 link rear suspension setup, and a double wishbone front end from the factory? Jesus ! That's a more advanced setup than a lot of the comparable cars (Ford Escort, Morris Marina, Vauxhall Chevette, etc) we had here in the UK at the time !

Cars were pretty simple back then and although Ladas aren't the most reliable at least they are easy to repair. They haven't been made in 20 years or more, though, so he will have trouble finding Ladas to destroy in the future. I am sure he will figure out something to repair those bushings, though -- he will need to in order to film his next Lada video (which could be a long time from now -- he won't be able to post videos here until the war is over).

I buy old 90 hondas, and they al seem to come with this mod. The trick to driving these shotboxes is to always be accellerating (in the physics sense).
