Thanks.

Sadly, it isn't easy to check how previous owner really cared about car, and I'm unlucky person overall, so I'd expect problems.

Considering old Russian cars:

Not really

Mostly yes, but quality of spare parts forces you to repeat this often.

Overall, USSR had shortage of car service stations, so people repaired cars by themselves. Biggest monthly car magazine "За рулём" (behind the wheel) had almost half of it about maintenance and repair of vehicles by own means. Now situation is different of course.

I could write more about Russian automobile history, but it would be too big for this post.

Considering truly "local" cars, new Ladas aren't that bad as they were, but they already mostly Renault/Nissan designed and made (it is biggest shareholder) and have same price, so there is no real reason to choose them (except maybe cheapest Granta, but it sucks). Other local producers from old times are dead, except maybe UAZ with it's jeeps (not these poor Nivas).
