It's hard to say why, but the thought of acquiring Oka visits many. In society, it is believed that this car is a wonderful gift to his wife or mother-in-law. Only not everyone will like such unpretentious transport, even though ladies need something compact during their shopping trips, to the gym or pool. Those people who do not have money now will not buy a foreign car - the same Ford Ka or something like that. After all, in order to accumulate the necessary amount, it will take time. If you need a car now, this is not an option.

Oka… and why is it needed?

In short, choosing this machine is a big compromise. So that the purchase does not bring disappointment, you need to take care of the details: find out what and how, and how much such a car will cost. Many recommend seeking advice from an experienced friend who has an impressive experience of "cooperation" with the domestic auto industry and can guide anyone through the reefs of such an event as buying the first car. This will eliminate the biased influence of the seller and prevent abuseincompetence of the future owner of the vehicle. The following will be done:

• all the details about the car, possible accidents, mileage, etc. have been clarified

• after talking with friends who had this miniature vehicle, “childhood illnesses” and vulnerabilities identified;• clarified where the new Oka was produced - at KAMAZ or SEAZ.

How much is a car for the people?

The last car left the assembly line back in 2008, except for a small-scale batch that was released in 2010. The car was made in the performance of a pickup truck, but a number of its design flaws did not allow a new body to be installed on the conveyor. "Oka" in this version more and more resembles a curiosity, which not every driver now recognizes. After all, its practical use with a standard chassis is limited. All this, combined with small dimensions, raises serious doubts about the profitability of such transportation. Therefore, unfortunately, a logical conclusion arises that the new Oka in 2014 is a machine that is virtually impossible to meet. After all, the last mass-produced car manufactured at the SEAZ plant was sold back in 2009. As a result, you can buy an Oka only by hand. And the search for a car with low mileage can take so long that needles in a haystack seem like a trifle.

How much is the "new" "Oka"? The figures below show the real price of the car depending on its technical condition, mileage and year of manufacture:

• until 2002 - from 30 to 55 thousandrubles;

• from 2002 to 2004 - 60,000-80,000 rubles. maximum 120 thousand rubles.

Additional costs

As everyone knows, these are not final values. You will also need funds for registration, which can be compensated by bargaining with the owner of the car. The year of manufacture also cannot serve as the only criterion, because the “new” Oka, which left the assembly shops in 2006, due to careful attention, timely maintenance and garage storage, can be much better than the same car, but 2008 release.

What to pay close attention to

First of all, you need to look at the condition of the body and engine. Only key units can cost a decent amount to the buyer in case of unsatisfactory condition and subsequent repair. Therefore, it is important to carefully weigh how much the “new” “Oka” costs, and whether the game is worth the candle. Doors are still considered a weak point of the car, because they sag due to unreliable fasteners and do not close well enough, but this drawback is not critical, and, perhaps, it can be fixed.

Which "Oka" is preferable: assembly of SEAZ or KAMAZ?

After talking with car enthusiasts and owners of this car, it is easy to make sure that the product of the SEAZ enterprise is still much better than its twin from Naberezhnye Chelny. First of all, it is necessary to note the quality of the paintwork. In Serpukhov they cherishedmany ambitious plans. It was planned to develop a modern city car based on the Soviet past. The new "Oka" was supposed to become a bestseller in the Russian Federation, respectively, and painting was carried out in boxes, on high-quality foreign-made equipment. At the same time, KAMAZ paid less attention to the project. Painting was carried out in workshops on outdated equipment that had previously been used on the truck line. As a result, after the winter, this pair of visually indistinguishable cars could behave in completely different ways. The model from Naberezhnye Chelny required mandatory repainting, the decorative layer did not adhere to the surface of the car, it constantly cracked, swelled and peeled off. The car from Serpukhov did not have such shortcomings.

Secondly, despite the use of an identical engine for cars, which was produced at VAZ, the engine on the Oka from KAMAZ had many shortcomings. Although this is not documented, rumors still persist that all the best specimens were sent to SEAZ. Whereas almost half of the power plants with marriage went to Naberezhnye Chelny. However, this did not help the producers to realize the Russian dream. Oka, the new model of which remained only in the plans, did not become a hit in the Russian car industry.

Not only flaws

For its time, the car was great, so it is still found on the roads. Initially, the Oka was equipped with a 0.65-liter engine, but this power unit was too weak, and since 1997began to install a 750 cubic centimeter engine. The car accommodates 4 people of average build, so passengers from the club "who are over 190 cm tall" have nothing to do there. There is very little space in the trunk, but if you fold the rear row of seats, you can fit a small refrigerator or TV. You can forget about the fuel efficiency of this model, because the average consumption does not exceed 4-6 liters, depending on the driving style. Although it is very difficult to go fast in this car, it has many other advantages. Indeed, in a dense traffic flow of a metropolis, a car allows you to work wonders because of its maneuverability. However, respect for other drivers should be forgotten, the culture of their traffic leaves much to be desired.

Perhaps those who really care about the fate of this car will be able to change the situation. After all, the new "Oka" is a car that they will try to revive once again at the VAZ. Presumably by 2020 she will be successful.
