I haven't seen any car with a carburettor in decades.

Technically you still haven't.

Well that checks out. This isn't a car from the last few decades.

Unless I miss.my guess that used to be a Lada Riva - model designed in 1980, discontinued in 2012. They were everywhere in Russia and older ones were used as farm vehicles in Ukraine. They were very popular because the parts were easy to come by, one way or another.

These parts, for example, were just standing by the road.

A lot of their stuff comes from decades ago.
