I'd say 1984+ because of lack of chrome trim on wheel wells.

On 2106 Ladas, 1982 marked the beginning of heavy cutting down production costs, so:
1982 - optional black plastic headlight housings;
1984 - chrome on wheel wells dropped, side trim got black plastic mountings;
1985 - vents on the C-pillar came from 2105 model;
1986 - no more chromed headlight housings;
1986-87 - reflective units on rear fenders dropped;
1987 - side marker lamps inside front doors replaced by reflective units;
1988-89 - chrome plating of rain gutters dropped;
ca. 1990 - hubcaps from discontinued 2103 model became standard;
1992-93 - a limited number of 'trimless' cars was released, lacking the entire side trim;
1990 - plastic hubcaps appeared instead of chrome ones;
ca. 1995 - the original two-spoked steering wheel was replaced with the one from 2107 model;
ca. 2001 - chrome plating on grille cancelled,
and so on.
