The inside of this Moskvitch 407 breathes pure Soviet nostalgia! Here are some of the interior features: Dashboard: Simple and functional, with a central speedometer that goes up to 140 km/h. This matches the top speed of about 115 km/h. Steering Wheel: A large, thin steering wheel with a striking decorative clock in the center. This is probably a personal addition by the owner. Upholstery: The steering wheel has a braided cover, something that was popular in the past for extra grip and comfort. Switches & Knobs: To the left of the steering wheel are switches for lights and other basic functions, while the ventilation buttons and heater control are to the right of the steering wheel. Old Soviet gauge units: The gauges display things like battery voltage (Ампер - Ampere) and fuel level (Бензин - Gasoline), in classic Cyrillic letters. This interior is a great snapshot of how cars were built in the Soviet Union in the 1950s and 1960s—rugged, minimalist, and functional.

De binnenkant van deze Moskvitch 407 ademt pure Sovjet-nostalgie! Hier zijn een paar kenmerken van het interieur: Dashboard: Simpel en functioneel, met een centrale snelheidsmeter die tot 140 km/u gaat. Dit past bij de maximale snelheid van ongeveer 115 km/u. Stuurwiel: Een groot, dun stuur met een opvallend decoratief klokje in het midden. Dit is waarschijnlijk een persoonlijke toevoeging van de eigenaar. Bekleding: Het stuur heeft een gevlochten hoes, iets wat vroeger populair was voor extra grip en comfort. Schakelaars & Knoppen: Links van het stuur zitten schakelaars voor de verlichting en andere basisfuncties, terwijl de ventilatieknoppen en de kachelregeling rechts van het stuur zitten. Oude Sovjet-meterunits: De meters tonen zaken als de accuspanning (Ампер - Ampère) en brandstofniveau (Бензин - Benzine), in klassieke Cyrillische letters. Dit interieur is een prachtig tijdsbeeld van hoe auto's in de jaren '50 en '60 in de Sovjet-Unie waren gebouwd—robuust, minimalistisch en functioneel. Foto genomen bij het Dariali klooster vlakbij de grens tussen Georgië en Rusland.

Whilst visiting a car show I saw this guy polishing his car after a downpour of rain. It was absolutely immaculate and he must have spent hours in preparing and maintaining it.
I liked his hoodie with a photo of his car on the back.
