DynaMike ◊ 2009-04-18 18:13	Sorry, I did. I thought it was just sort of local nickname.
Weasel1984 ◊ 2009-04-19 16:00	Well, it is not wrong to have it where it is now, but IMO it could be also a part of the name as "Rila". It was indeed an unnoficial name, but a bit different than for example "the beetle", as originally they planned to officialy rename all Bulgarian-made Moskvitches to Rila, but finally it became only a nickname (at least it is what the Wikipedia says).
