1985 Trabant 601 S review from Bulgaria
"Great car that can't be used or found anymore"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only thing is that this is not a comfortable car.
It has no AC of course :), very tiny rear seat.
General comments?
Doesn't rust.
Low cost for maintenance. This thing runs and runs. It just needs to have oil and gas put in and that's it. Very funny and reliable car. I had it when I was student. I sold it then 1000 German marks. I bought a 1964 Beatle.
