This is a Hardbody D21, I don't know what they're called in Romania.

1986-89 model. These were never sold in Romania, thanks to Ceausescu. Being in Europe, however, it's most likely to be called Navara.

The most important fact, why COMECON-countries haven't imported that many Western cars, at least all kind of Western goods, was the lack of real, valuable money. Annother, why the local regimes haven't allowed the import, because noone wouldn't be interested any more then in the own, self-cobbled shitboxes.
As it was well to see in the DDR. With one stroke of the gong, of 0:00 on the 1st July 1990, everything DDR-made became worthless immediately - and was thrown into the trashcan within a few days. The (often faked) employments, at least the most state-owned VEB-companies followed a few days later.

P.S.: At this day the D-Mark replaced the worthless "Alu-Chips", the DDR-Mark.

@Andre: sure, some technical products from the COMECON-countries were o.k. and, except it became worse in the 80ies, not totally outdated, but annother problem was the image.
At first for political reasons. In West Germany, especially West Berlin, many people have fundamentally refused to buy any products from the other side of the Iron Curtain (that many goods from there were sold here with a different name and without a "Made in ..."-label is something different...) The other reason was, that all Eastern products on our market were flogged for discount-prices. Everything was much cheaper than the local made things, though sometimes the quality wasn't that much worse.
So the Lada was the ultimate realistic dream car for DDR-citizens, because it was the most expensive one, they could get for DDR-Mark and without good connections. In West Germany the Lada was the second cheapest car (after the back-engined Skodas), with an abysmal image. This image-problems went down to the food. "Nordhäuser Doppelkorn" was the most premoum schnapps in the DDR, usually hard to find, after staying in the line for hours - in our supermarkets it was the cheapest choice, seen as the fusel oil-happymaker for street-guys.

Honestly I am thinking this might be a US spec with repeaters added. Did EU ever get the sealed beam head lamps?
