Well my wife and I picked up our Niva Wednesday the 26th Nov , after many years of wanting one , it's supposed to be her car , but I will probably be the one taking it off the tar initially .

Hi Graham - and welcome to the forum.
Well, once you get off the tar, things really start to get interesting !
Where do you find yourself ? I must admit, the registration number on your Lada looks very familiar...........
Regards
Danie

HI Danni. We live in Monta Vista , just bought it from a lady in Strand , but she says she hasn't had it that long , I am looking for other Niva's to team up with off road ( have been told the golden rule is don't go alone) and as a beginner , with more enthusiasm than common sense I will get stuck sooner than later. ;D

Hi Graham
I stand to be corrected, but you are the fourth Forum member from the Capetown area. With such a lot of enthusiasm in that area, I am sure you will be able to work something out between yourselves !
Please keep us posted, and send some pics, if possible.
Regards
Danie

Cool!, look forward to arranging a get together soon, doing a extended family camp together this weekend , first ever ,it will be interesting to say the least . So after that I will try get in touch .
Hmm the only thing that probably looks cooler than a bunch of Defenders in convoy , must be a whole bunch of "Little Darlings" ,not sure what those russians were thinking when they called them that ! ;D
