editHow can an automobile be any more or less important than another ?
History: Can any one add something to the history ? The Soviets bought the entire production line from FIAT but the tooling was shot and the Soviets ended up not paying FIAT for the deal as a result.
Any one got any thing on special Ladas ? The police cars ?
Lada trivia ? Plenty of Ladas in contemporary film and TV
What about all the Ladas which ended up at the bottom of the North Sea because Soviet merchant seamen would buy tow or three dud Ladas in foreign ports, then assemble one good one out of the parts on the way home, and dump the other two shells overboard. Fishermen used to hate them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Proph-Six (talk • contribs) 06:36, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Information mismatch
editThere is said that VAZ-21016 has 1,452 cc (89 cu in) engine from VAZ-21011 but VAZ-21011 has 1,294 cc (79 cu in) engine. VAZ-21016 info has been cited to book: Cars of the Soviet Union by Andy Thompson. --tapi0 (talk) 00:23, 5 March 2018 (UTC)
- Made correction to information after borrowing the book. --tapi0 (talk) 18:02, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
Origin of the nickname Kopeyka
editThe main article is not clear why 2101 model was nicknamed kopeyka. The reason was that kopeyka essentially means 1 kopeck. When further models of the car were produced, they were nicknamed "dvoyka" or "number 2" (2102), "troyka" or "number three" (2103) up to "shesterka" (2106). Now, the corresponding name for number one would be "yedinitsa" but for the reasons which are not so easy to explain, a nickname "yedinitsa" would be really awkward for a car. So instead Russians called it "kopeyka" because kopeyka is "one kopeck" or another way to say "one". Note that as far as I know, "kopeyka" is not used in any other case to mean "number one" except in this case. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.72.221.76 (talk) 00:51, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
