Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

and being a retired HG' driver, I read with great interest your article regarding the firm who purchased a Lada (CM 17-24 May) as a "punishment vehicle".

On 16 February I took delivery of a five-door Lada Riva estate, and — do you know — I can't, for the price of £5,350 on the road, find any fault with this vehicle.

It comes with a rear window and headlamp wash/wipe, a switch for everything worth talking about, plenty of room, a cassette-radio and, above all, lead-free petrol.

I thought on the theme that Russia builds its own lorries to transport its rockets; it builds its own tanks, planes and ships, so surely (I am now 70), they can build me a car to suit my simple needs?

Perhaps if the boss who bought his men a Lada reads this he may not think of it so much as a punishment vehicle; I don't!
