Theme Thursdays: Ex Soviet/Russian rides

Once again I have Ollie to thank for submitting the content for this weeks Theme Tuesday. Normally I would add a few cars from my own collection to whatever he sends but this week I am on vacation so it’s 100% Ollie’s pics.

I’ve posted a few Russian and Soviet cars before but I have not really looked into them too hard so this is a good switch up of the norm.

Start things off with a Trabant with some Patina
Mesh wheels work on everything...
Exceptionally clean Lada
and another
Polish based Trabant
Ollie digs the eyelids on this car and I have to agree they are very fitting
Nice laid, plaid interior nice touch
Lada with a little from here and a little from there
The last Wartburg I posted had a Subaru motor swapped in it
This cars got just a little bit of motor sport flare to it
Of the cars Ollie sent this Trabant estate was my absolute favorite
It's small like a mini, but a wagon like... well a wagon
Ironically he sent this car first, and I put it last

Sorry for the delay on this one. The internet room here flooded. Go figure…
