Taking a Lada Niva home?
Hi, I'm a biker but I've recently been thinking of doing my 'Big Trip' to the 'stans in my Lada Niva instead of on two wheels.
The original idea was to 'do' the Balkans, Romania, cross into Asia Minor through Istanbul (a city break for Mrs S) then circumnavigate the Black Sea and head up to St Petersburg (another city break for Mrs S) via The Ukraine, Belarus, the Baltic States and on into Finland, to the Nordcapp, then back down Scandinavia, Denmark, and so on back home in the Pyrenees.
But between the problems in Ukraine, the good news about Iran and the change of vehicle I've wondered about circumnavigating the Caspian Sea instead and after the 'stans heading right across Russia via the Lada factory at Tolyatti on the Volga river.
I'm in no kind of hurry, this will probably have to wait unti after I 'retire' - ha ha, chance would be a fine thing in 2018-ish.
So, any views, advice, etc.

Simon
