Hi
As those who have followed my introduction will know, I am a journalist at Drive Out and I want to get rid of my Camry and buy a Lada. So, who has got one on offer?
Thanks
Gerrie

Hi Gerrie Probably your best place to start is a rebuilt from Ventz in Pietermaritzburg. Buying from him will not only ensure that you are getting a good deal, but buying from him you will be protected under the new Consumer Protection Act. He will be leaving for Europe very shortly for quite some time, but maybe you can give him a call. You will find his details here>> locsa.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=sparep&action=display&thread=652Regards Marius

Marius, why do you think that I must be married to the new Consumer Protection Act? My word is constitution and all another acts are peanuts.

Hi Ventz
Many Acts are not worth the paper they are written on, but hopefully this new Act will give some much needed protection to consumers in this country. Consumers have been blind sided for decades in this country.
I do know first hand that your "word is constitution" and many other members can testify to that, but as a service provider you are bound by this Act. A private seller on the other hand is not.
All I am saying is that it would be better for someone to buy a Lada from you than from a private seller as it gives the buyer some protection just in case things goes wrong.
Regards Marius

OK, so the question begs to be asked... Ventzel, what do you have to offer me?

Nothing ready at the moment. I've got 2 ones for check up but due to my long trip at the end of the month I can start work at least in August. Actually very often I have calls for purchasing Lada but currently I can't help.
The last car which I sold as an official Lada dealer was in 1999 and it was my last new one. Outstanding stock; about 6 months after closing my precious showroom, the new import was terminated and I had nothing more to offer. Since then all cars sold by me were by private deals.

Ventz do you have pictures of what your showroom looked like? I would love to see it.

Yes Charles, I've got but they are taken a long time before the digital age with the old legendary ZENIT photo camera and I have to scan them. I don't have working scanner right now. Will do it sometimes in the near future. Anyway, it was the only showroom for Lada in RSA and no any other vehicle was allowed to stay inside.
