1980 Yugo 101 Confort review from Serbia
"Comforts are best 101's ever built by Yugo factory"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
All four doors and tailgate were replaced due to rust after 10 years.
Car went for only £100 in 2000 due to corrosion body damage beyond repair, which is hardly surprising for a 20-year old car.
General comments?
The seats are extremely comfortable - "confort" trim.
Genuine Fiat engine never let me down. Superb acceleration for its body size.
Not to be driven beyond 120 km/h due to rattles and squeaks.
Plastic wheel archers improve corrosion resistance of front wings.
Low-mileage/rust-free Confort is a bargain and is sought-after even now, after 20 years of obsolence.
