18th
stage of the round-the-world expedition "A Man, Ecology, the Peace" is still
in progress. Now the route of the expedition is being carried out through Argentina.
"Lada" cars show good technical results, no maintenance is required. The next
country is Chili. As Yuri Gusho, the chief of the expedition said, people are
really interested in cars, produced by AVTOVAZ. By the way, Yuri Gusho is an
interesting person by himself. He is a professor, a coach, a president of International
Assocation "A Man, Ecology, the Peace". Yuri Gusho has also a Doctor's degree
and he is a chief of the round- the- world Rally through all the continents.
One of the organizers of this Rally is "RUSIA
AUTOMOTRIZA" Co. (Uruguay), an official importer of "Lada" cars in Latin American
countries. In 1999 a contract on delivery of vehicles and spare parts was signed
with AVTOVAZ. Now " RUSIA AUTOMOTRIZA" has the sole right to sell "Lada" cars
in Latin American countries: Uruguay, Paraguay, Brazil, Nicaragua, Cuba and
others countries. In 1999 and 2000 "RUSIA AUTOMOTRIZA" sold 7000 vehicles.
