VIDEO: Vladimir Putin Drives a Renault Formula 1 Car


Former Russian President and now Prime Minister Vladimir Putin is doing his best to remain in the spotlight. After his country decided to back the Renault F1 team, by branding it with Lada advertisements, Mr. Putin was invited to drive the R30 Formula One racer at a special event held in St. Petersburg. Video after the break.

Fan-made Transformers Film from Russia is Simply Awesome [with Video]


Michael Bay, you need to be taking notes, because this fan-made Transformers short film is epically cool. Created by 21-year old Alexander Vladimirovich Semenov from Russia, the film doesn't use little white trash GM robots or the ridonkulous SR-71 pirate grandpa; instead, it stars a cool old VAZ 2106...I think...and some dinky little cell phone robots.

Oh and the main guy is someone who ends up driving the VAZ Decepticon. Really, who wouldn't want to drive a little 4-wheeled evil?

Instead of what boils down to plain stupid product placement like Jolt the Volt, how about we make this next Transformers a little more down to earth (as crazy as that sounds)?

I know sponsors are the ones writing your checks, but there comes a time when the movie needs to still be a Michael Bay summer blockbuster and not a two hour GM commercial. Check out the slick vid below.

Мустанг: Lada Daydreams of Being a Ford Mustang


Here's what you get for having far too much time on your hands; a five-door hatchback (or is the Sportback?) Lada turned into something that tries to look like a Ford Mustang. Truth to be said, the Ukrainian owner of the Ladastang went to great lengths to make the car almost indistinguishable from a conventional Lada, but the result is hardly exciting... More painful pictures after the break.

Mercedes SLS AMG Gullwing Crashes with Lada in Russia [with Videos]


In what could very well be the first documented crash of Mercedes-Benz's $200,000 Gullwing supercar, an SLS AMG had an unfortunate close encounter of the wrong kind with a humble yet destructive, Lada 112 'fastback', somewhere in Moscow.

From the videos of the incident we found on the net, it is revealed that a black Nissan Murano crossover was also somehow involved in the crash.

Interestingly, the license plate number of the car tells us that the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Gullwing was a press / demo car used in many photo shoots and videos in Russia (see the last clip after the jump).

Video: Ad Makes Fun of Lada 2107

Once upon a time, well before the Tata Nano minicar came into the picture, the Lada 2107 (and all its derivatives) was one of the cheapest forms of 4wheel-transportation that money could buy. Of course, being based on the obsolete Fiat 124, terms like luxury and safety simply didn’t exist in the 2107’s vocabulary. This funny computer generated advert attempts to mock these non-existing qualities of the 2107 in a totally hilarious way. In the end, the title says: “The Legendary Lada 2107 – Quality. Tradition. Safety.” -Video after the jump

Fuzzy Wuzzy Russian Lada Niva

Truth is, it gets pretty darn cold in Russia but to dress your entire vehicle in Astroturf is kinda far fetched. On the other hand, if you think about it, the owner of this texturized Lada Niva will never have to worry about the color fading or having his vehicle accidentally scratched or dented while parked on the road. -More pics after the jump

Lada vs Concrete Wall...

Amazingly, as you can see in the pictures after the jump, the Lada came out through the wall without any serious damages. We don’t know if the Russian driver was hurt, but if anything else, he must have lost a few years of his life the moment he saw that the crash was inevitable. -Continued

Borat Style Street Racing In Romania

Forget about STIs vs EVOs. This street racing video is all about Romanian turbocharged Ladas with more exhaust pipes than three Ferraris put together and supped up Dacias –not the Logan mind you. BTW; are those Romanian babes hot or what… -Video after the jump

Lada Red & Black: A 220Hp Russian "pimpster" you’d better not joke about

How do you double the value of a Lada? Fill it with petrol! Nice joke, but you’d better keep it for yourself if you ever “bump” into this tuned Lada 2110. Dubbed “Red & Black” this extreme Lada 2110 is the work of Lukoil Racing Team & Tj Auto. While Russian language is certainly not one of our strong points, we tried our best though a translation program to decode some info of Lukoil’s site. From what we made, the Rad & Black is a road going version of Lukoil’s "Super class" racing car.

While the exterior is not that dramatic –well apart from the Jumbo jet rear spoiler that is, its interior is quiet impressive with the F1 inspired dashboard and the aero-type console with the 6speed sequential auto-box. Weighing in at just 1.150kg - 2535 lbs, the Red & Black is equipped with a 1.6-litre 4cylinder engine that has an output of 220hp @ 8.300 rpm (!) and a maximum torque figure of 220Nm @ 6.800 rpm. According to Lucoil, Red & Black needs a mere 5,5 sec to accelerate from zero to 100 km/h (62mph) and it reaches a top speed of 230 km/h – 143 mph. -Continued: Click “Read More…” below to see the official press release & more pics
