I guess Lada 1200 in the background Mercedes W124 sedan and MB TI minibus |

yes, it´s Lada 1200, in the Bulgaria rather named VAZ 2101. |

Looks alot like a FIAT 128 |

The shape of a Fiat 124 (of which is Lada derived) is very similar to the of Fiat 128, bud this is definitely Lada (I know it, my parents owned one when I was child). And Fiat 128 as a car of Bulgarian police? It´s unlikely. |

This was filmed in Bulgaria but the plot is set in Russia. That number plate is a bad fake that looks a bit like old Soviet plates. -- Last edit: 2007-09-17 12:16:16 |

This is VAZ/Lada, but Fiat wouldn't be so strange for Bulgaria, don't forget that in the 1960's for a while the Fiat 124 was assembled there by Pirin. Edit: rectangle mirror was to meet in 1973 for the first time, Ofc. it can be not original one. It laso can be a later one mounted to the doors - 1976+ -- Last edit: 2012-12-25 00:02:24 |

Quote from Wikipedia: Bulgarian The Fiat 124 was also produced under the name Pirin-Fiat in Lovech, Bulgaria, on the basis of complete knockdown (CKD) kits between 1967 and 1971 I hired one in Bulgaria in 1971. Nice little car, with 'Balkanturist' on the front doors: people kept mistaking it for a taxi. ![]() |

@Gag Halfrunt: yes. @weasel1984: I was on holiday. I worked in a wages office ... my late mother, a teacher, and I had an arrangement: basically, I drove (she hated driving) and she paid ![]() We once or twice went to what were then Communist countries - yes, including Poland! - because they were cheap as well as interesting. |

Sounds like nice holiday in nice times from the automotive point of view. ![]() |

Oh, it was: they all were. And photography is a hobby of mine ... I'll try not to bore the site with my photos unless I think they're relevant. |
