Top 3 Lada promotional pictures from the 1970s

Lada is a Russian brand of car that was very popular in Finland during the 1970s and early 1980s, mainly because of the cheap price tag. Here are our top 3 Finnish ad pics from that era, complete with made-up copy.

3. Autumn Lada
“It’s a shame our Lada had to break down out here in the sticks. On the bright side the mustardy colour of our car makes it blend in perfectly in this autumny setting. So pretty.”

2. Summer Lada
“So sorry I ran over your foot, man. No, really. By the way, did you happen to check out the double headlights on my Lada before I did though? Why are you wearing all denim? So many questions. Your hair reminds me of a dog.”

1. Flood Lada
“Jukka, we’re doomed. We will never escape this tsunami in our Soviet-made economy car.”
“No Sirpa, we must try. The Lada is our only hope now.”
