Volga (USSR)
Large and high, simple (four-cylinder in-line engine, manual column gear shift, solid axle, leaf springs), modest (very low compression, the engine swallows almost every combustible liquid) but a bit too expensive for "...the next level of evolution of humanity thanks to the success of Marxist social experiment...", the Homo Sovieticus (wikipedia). Volgas were typical cars for officials and their tough construction made them popular in taxi trades.
The blue M21 and its white successor M24, both have just a couple of miles on the odometer. Every single car in the museum is either unused or completely rebuild with NOS parts, down to the smallest screw. The long-legged M21 has a certain potential. I like its translucent blue bubble speedo with Sputnik-touch (pic 4).
