Yes I saw this, Classic Car Weekly did a good write up with some interesting facts; I never knew that the original 1.6 was a perfect "square" engine (bore and stroke 80x80). They referred to the Fiat metal fatigue and suggested that it was this model that set the Fiat oxidisation legend in stone... Strange that this model would always be tarnished with the name Lada.
A very good car, I had one way back when they were still in the showrooms.

We owned a 1971 124 Special (1438cc) in the late 1970's/early 1980's, ended up with a Mirafiori 1600 ohv engine that used to do about 110mph & literally flew!!! I learned to drive in it - quickly! It had some tinworm (base of c-pillars was the worst place) but no worse than BL's finest of the day.
