Now, I know it's only a 3-door and a show car and all... but this might make for an interesting-looking racer

Martin, that three door model could be interesting (if they can get down and beg like Polestar did in Sweden for their C30 which is also a three door car).

No need to beg... get local homologation...

like Volvo C30
like the ethanol-powered Volvo
like WSR BMW with sequential box

you can then race them, albeit with handicaps

Wasn't Colin Turkington unable to score points at Brands last year due to the gearbox?

The Lada drove at Zandvoort today for the first time. Viktor Shapovalov was the driver. After 6 laps he gone off at the breaking area before the Tarzan corner. The car wasn't badly damaged but he was not able to drive the remaining part of the testing session.

Now, we know they mean business. What sort of times were they doing? Anything that could be threatening?
