All of them. Moskvitch, Volha, Lada... Loooong waitting line, even if you had money (which 99% ppl didn't). Only right connection could greese things up. And to be in The Party.
Ah, so you mean for the most part only apparatchiks had cars at all?

Appartchiks and KGB had Volgas . Moskvich was for lower ranks, and occasionally for common people

Yep, and Chaika! Both Chaika & Volga were 'executive/luxury' cars made by GAZ. Also for the KGB there was Pobeda (GAZ). Moskvitch was more like 'middle' class. For common people there was something like Zaporozhets (ZAZ) or Zhiguli aka Lada "Kopeyka" (VAZ-2101/Fiat 124).
