Lada Riva James' first car was a pink Lada Riva, although James claimed in an interview the colour was actually racing red. Curious was the fact that when James brought the car he found a condom blu-tacked underneath the steering wheel and the previous owner was an old lady. James said about his car 'My Lada had bucket seats and an enormous stereo system that someone stole. There can only be one thing more embarrassing than owning a Lada Riva,' he says, 'and that must be stealing the stereo from a Lada Riva'. See also Cars.
