On special request: a car of which I know next to nothing:  ;)

Straight to the pros. 2 points for the name of the car and the builder (I don't know either of them)

If no one else solves it by tomorrow I will give it a shot. It is a Lada 2106-based thing from Ukraine

Name is Lamboshesterka (shest is six in Russian) but I can't find the builder -  yet

Yes, it seems these three images were published on 14 January, 2008 at fishki.net and mushroomed from there. But there's no word on who built it and the guys at fishki.net nicknamed it Lamboshesterka

I'll move it to the black hole until someone finds the builder  ;)

Some countries has a Registration Plates Database. Maybe finding this Database webpages of the Russia, Ukraine or one of ex Soviet Union Countries.  It's just an idea  ???

If I Google the Russian part of your answer, I can quite easily find photo's of this car. So I'm inclined to declare this one solved.

According to Google it translates into Kiev Mirage.

Now, how to describe this one in the solved section?

Both with Russian and English characters:
Kiev Mirage (Киевский Мираж) by Yuri Zavarov (Юрия Заваров)

Just my 2 cents
