In 1976 the Brazilian Fiat 147, a local variant of the 127, was introduced with an engine very similar to the one used in your car. It's almost 40 years just from its introduction in Brazil, though it had already been previously used in some European models. BTW what really surprises me is that Lada didn't use an OHV engine instead.
