A resident of Grozny put up for sale a VAZ-21011 from 1977, a modification of the VAZ-2101. The "Kopeyka" has traveled only 7,300 kilometers. The seller claims that the smell of a new car has been preserved in the cabin. He is asking 1,575,000 rubles for the rarity, which is comparable to the cost of a new Lada Vesta car.
The seller assures that the car is in absolutely original condition - including not only the units and paintwork, but also the wheels along with the tires. For 30 years, the "kopeyka" was not used and was in a dry garage.
The VAZ-21011 was produced from 1972 and included a number of improvements to improve dynamics and comfort. Thus, the car was equipped with a more powerful engine than the VAZ-2101. It was equipped with a 1.3-liter engine with a capacity of 70 horsepower, while the first model of the "Zhiguli" had an engine of only 1.2 liters and 64 horsepower.
The body of the VAZ-21011 received ventilation holes on the rear pillars, four additional slots under the radiator grille for cooling, and simplified bumpers without "fangs" with rubber inserts.
The car is also correctly called "kopeyka", since it belongs to the first generation of "Zhiguli". The brainchild of AvtoVAZ received this nickname due to the shape of the front of the body, reminiscent of a penny coin.
