My friend had a Daewoo in college that always smelled funky and one of the headlights never would light up correctly, even after being fixed by the dealer. The only option it was missing was the handle on top to be able to carry it around.

See the Skodas they make now? Totally different. I remember seeing those in the UK when I was there in 1990. They called them upside down bathtubs. How is that Russian Lada parked across the street from it? Thats another awful car, wasnt bad as a Fiat in the 60's but once the commies got a hold of it,so long.

Yes a Lada !!!! That's the other uncool car we had in the family . haha what a joke

Then we had one of these , a Whartburg !
I guess the name is very fitting to the car ( cringe).

Wartburgs had a three-cylinder two-stroke engine with only seven moving parts (three pistons, three connecting rods and one crankshaft).
