What a ridiculous car the old Twingo was

So... anything like a Trabant?

My Hungarian uncle (by marriage) used to drily observe "Is not car, is Trabant."

When I was 13 yo in 1991 my school organized a school trip to East Berlin. I spent two weeks there, so I saw a lot of Trabant. I liked this car very much. The father of my correspondant used to say the same "It's not a car, it's a Trabant"

Thanks for bringing back those nice memories!

I'll try to explain later... properly!
