A belated congratulations then, Marius I am sure you have kept track of expenses over the 12 years? Would you mind sharing with us? Even if it is just a Rc/km

Thanks guys!
Spikes I haven't done all the calculations lately, but over a period of 10 years we averaged around a R1000 a year. This figure includes my annual DIY service and parts for repairs. That makes the Niva a HUGE bargain in my book.
I was able to service the car for around R400 all included. That figure is now just over R600 for a DIY service. One must also take into consideration that I've mainly used the car as a daily. If you like to play rough over the weekends you can expect a MUCH stiffer bill.

Hi guys I know this is a lada site but this is something that is close to a lot of peoples hearts. Many of you might have already heard of Barry Armitage and Joe Dawson who rode the Mongol Derby last year as well as did the Dick King ride and various others for different charities. It all started with a simple comment that eventually led to them riding for charity. Well right now they are trying to raise R65 000 to be able to bring back the winner's trophy from Mongolia this August. If anyone can help donate money or has a contact in an airline to help donate a flight (frequent flyer miles welcome ) or even sms the number in the FB link to help these guys it would be dearly appreciated. We have ONE month to raise the funds. Please read all about Barry and Joe at www.barryarmitage.comor if you want to donate via a simple sms www.facebook.com/notes/the-ride/mission-mongolia/314934788599753Thanks Maddy

Hi All
I suppose some members has also received a PM from MABEL 01, a member of this forum.
BE WARNED - I am 100% sure that MABLEL 01 is a scammer, and I hereby do a serious appeal to Locsa Management to ban Mabel 01 from this website.
Danie

Well, I guess "poor" Mrs. Label has read some of my posts, and started believing that I do qualify for the title "biggest fool who will fall for scams like that ". Thanks Spikes. Cheers Mrs. Label. Danie

Thanks for banning her Spikes.
I don't think these scam artists realise that they are trying their luck on the wrong forum. Lada drivers don't have any money, they spend it all fixing/modding their cars.

Update: The person's ISP is in Abidjan on Ivory Coast. Yahoo indicated as it was not an e-mail but a Personal Message received on a Forum Board, there is very little they can do other than advise the person that he/she is abusing the privilege of a Yahoo account. I approved the application. I would like to offer my apology to Danie for the Scam message he received I presently use en.utrace.de to trace IP addresses before approving an application. If anyone can point me to a more accurate trace I will appreciate it. Spikes
