1987 Trabant 601 P601S De luxe review from North America
"The Trabant is actually a very effective and admirable design of efficiency"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with any of my trabis, of which I import into Canada www.trabant.ca.
General comments?
One person can could lift the motor out of the car themselves, or that one could disassemble a Trabant down to the last screw and then put it back together in there own garage and not surprisingly it would work.
