The old VAZ-2105 is sold in Slovakia at the price of the new BMW 318D: That’s why

On the German classifide Mobile.de, Lada Rally VFTS, built by the TBR Racing racing team, was discovered. The description says that we are talking about the original model, which first registered in February 1984, so that the sedan took part in competitions of different levels for more than 40 years! However, the current configuration is new, and has never been used in races.

Super-burning for rally

The seller is a dealer from the city of Komarno (Slovakia), it is known that under the hood of a 2.0-liter engine with a capacity of 228 horsepower, and the thrust is transferred to the rear axle through the sequential gearbox. The inscriptions on the glasses hint that the owner of the Zhiguli was Robert Butor-a Hungarian lover-amateur and designer. The car lit up in numerous competitions and was in different configurations.

They want to help out 50 thousand euros for the racing car: this is the most expensive Lada on sale in Europe! For a comparable amount in Slovakia, you can purchase a new BMW 318D Touring. Is the Soviet VAZ-2105 VFTS really the basis from the Wilnius Automobile Repair Plant or is we talking about a copy for the Hungarian rally championship in the announcement. In any case, the prototype is endlessly far from the source of the 40 years ago.

Strange Lada and UAZs for Europe

In the early 1980s, Soviet rallyists and racers from the Eastern Bloc countries really used the “five”, modified in the capital of Lithuania. In October 1982, Zhiguli with the abbreviation VFTS took place homologation from the International Automobile Federation, and small -scale machines of that time were very in demand among collectors.
