Top Gear reviews Communist Cars
here is a video clip from the British show Top Gear where they drive several ladas, gaz, vaz, etc... very funny - especially the race with the dog. http://videos.streetfire.net/video/...nist_205207.htm

It is much more exciting in wide-screen and surround-sound, so watch out for it on the DAVE Channel. :-)

I thoght they were joking when they were asking about the differences of the model numbers of a brand of car. Saying the model A was for people with no legs. My wife says that was fact. She had a neighbor that was in a war and lost his legs. The gov't had a car made for him and it was one of the model numbers mentioned.

It was only a copper "lump" hammer, it was never going to do much damage.
A neighbour used to have a Lada Riva which he polished for hours every Sunday; he wore it down to bare metal in a little over a year!!! Although they killed the Niva, it has long been regarded as an excellent "first" off-roader for people who like "Green Lane-ing" |

That being said, there is no way I would take a copper lump hammer to my Toyota Matrix. The sheet metal is so thin, I breathe on it wrong and it gets dents.
