Отечественные легковые автомобили (Domestic passenger cars) by Сергей Канунников (Sergei Kanunnikov)
Publisher: За рулем (2009, 2nd edition)
Language: Russian
ISBN: 978-5-9698-0275-9
Pages: 504
In this book the author describes more than 500 Soviet and Russian cars from the very earliest of 1896 to the new production and concept models, prototypes from the very end of last century. This book is not only overloaded with beautiful B&W pictures, but also has description and detailed specifications for most of the mentioned models, including those prewar cars. Also mentioned here are some quite obscure names. Despite it is written in Russian (not many of us can well read this language, neither can I), overall this is a really great book well covering a rich history of the subject. 504 pages and more than 600 pictures makes it a must-have for all interested in Russian automotive history.
Looks like the Holy Grail of books about Russian cars.
I definitely must have a copy of this book!
Do you know if it can somewhere in Europe easily be ordered?

Yes, I'm also interested in a copy
And here too! ;)
I herewith reconfirm my interest in a copy.
as am i please let me know you much $
I'd like to order a copy as well!
I'm honestly impressed with the interest shown by you, guys! It seems it was well worth for me to drop few lines about this book :)
P.S. I just wonder if Za Rulem would make me a discount on their products for promoting their book ;D
Arunas, do you need anything from Za Ruljem? We are just working out a transportation method. Za Ruljem is not really an expert when it comes to international shipping. So the pack of books will land in Budapest, through a series of friends and then we'll post the books from there. It will still be cheaper. Gimme 2-3 days and I'll come back to all of you
If there is such a long queue of shippers and re-shippers, maybe I could help in some way?
thanks for your kind offer, but in reality it is not so complicated. The books will be on the Moscow-Budapest train courtesy of two friends. And then we'll ship the books from Budapest.
Coming a little late to the game, but can I order a copy of this book as well please? Thanks.
no worries, we were so busy with other projects that I let this one just linger. Will work on it next week
Please let us know when you're ready to take orders. I'll definitely order one.
Here I am. It took a bit longer than expected, but the books will finally be on their way next week to me :)
Price is EUR 29 or USD 38. Shipping within Europe is EUR 9,90. Shipping to USA is USD 24
If you would also like the Bulgarian book, then p&p of two books to Europe is EUR 18, to USA it is USD 33
You can pay via paypal to npaul@hu.inter.net or you can do a bank transfer - send me a PM and I send you my details.
I just made my payment through Paypal.
Thank you, I'll send you the book probably late next week.
Keep one for me, please. ;)
There will be 10 books arriving soon
Done!
Thank you Pal.
"Soon" is a relative term when you are dealing with Russians. But the book have arrived and the first copies have already been mailed. There are a few left - so let me know if you are interested
Arrived today!
Thank you for this book, not rare pictures but finally a nice source about these cars! :thumbsup:
My copy arrived today. :)
I was already looking a long time for a book that covered Russian cars and this one fulfills all expectations I had in mind. (If only I understood some Russian...)
A thank you to Arunas to let us know the existence of this book and a big thank you to Pnegyesi who helped us purchasing a copy. :thumbsup:
Glad all books arrived safely. First shipment of 10 books have been sold. If there's sufficient interest, I can order some more
Hello,
I like one too if it is possible.
Best regards,
cees
Dear Pal
This a book I am looking forward to. Reserve one for me please. You can send it to a friend in the Netherlands who will bring it to ZA. Total amount of 34 euro I suppose. I will try to pay asap when you confirm there is a copy for me.
I ordered another batch recently. I will let you know when it arrives
A friend of mine saw my copy of this book and now also wants a copy.
Are there still books available?
yes, I've got some books :)
Volume 2 is out on trucks and buses. I hope you don't mind me plugging my new site here :), but you can order it on http://www.ceautoclassic.eu
