You may well be right. I was fortunate enough to blag my way into a very good university, back in the days when the government paid us to go there, and I don’t think I ever forgot where I was. Ever.
Suggest you put “Comment of the Day” in the title.
Hayabusa swapped Trabants are a thing, though mainly for racing use. I wouldn’t be surprised if there are some that are for road use though.
Today’s Comment of the Day isn’t a funny meme or a Doug DeMuro joke. Today’s comment is a personal, realistic look…
Yeah, but you would lose 10 games a year and everyone would always be on sports radio complaining that your untalented back-up was better than you.
Has anyone built a Trabayabusa?
The air-cooled Trabants were copied from Lloyds. Prewar DKWs, and the early East German copies sat the engine behind the transmission, rather than beside it.
In Hungarian the sticker says, “I’ll be a Mercedes when I grow up.”
Man that black bear can really get down. But those brown bears have that sort of fiery, smooth style. Notice there aren’t any polar bears in this video, that’s because polar bears can’t dance. It’s a race joke, get it?!
Trabant history is great, thanks for the post! One note about the Trabant’s FWD configuration. It was actually well-tested by the 1950s, and it was probably basically the same as the 1931 DKW F1. The main reason for using this configuration for the Trabant is that it was the only one available. The tooling and engines…
When I was at university (UK - late ‘80s), a couple of students drove these in a way I can only describe as ‘ironically.’ It’s hard to do this with any car, but these areseholes managed.
Listen, anyone who tells you you have to poop indoors is a god damned liar.
One of these days I’m just gonna buy a Trabi and my husband is gonna go into the garage and see I have a hopeless little commie shitcan next to my pretty little Corvette and absolutely go ballistic. I’ve asked a million times if I can have one and the answer is always no because I have two cars already. A girl can…
Don’t forget about fucking Leo dicaprio with impunity. That’s aces.
Enjoy it now, Tom, because Trump will annihilate the bears so he can carpet the White House with their pelts.
I wish I were a bear. If I were a bear, I wouldn’t have to listen to politics, or feel guilt, or poop indoors. I could be free to live my life and no one would look at me like I was crazy for tearing a backpacker’s throat out.
It would be a stretch...
Dammit.
They have an olx site and mercadolibre (ebay copy). And a bunch of smaller used car sites. Remember to search for Volkswagen Escarabajo as that is the spanish name. If they don’t have the price in USD, they use Soles (PEN).
