Those things are everywhere over here - I guess they're popular just so people can say they own a Range Rover, even though it isn't the full-size one!

Believe it or not, I can tell you about two cars in the GEO lineup that gave a new look for the aging chevy cars. The Geo prism look was used to gave the caprice a newr look & the Geo storm look was used to give the camaro a newer look. After that, those two cars were killed by chevy & never got redesign.

The previous owner and I got in touch. She is now 95, bought the car new after retirement of 35 years of teaching with just 2 miles on it with her husband who sadly is no longer with us. The Saturn was her Little Green Bean and it has never left Lorain County, Ohio all its life until I took ownership.

I am so sorry that the Trabi had to be sold, but as you said, sometimes you have to make a difficult sacrifice in order to free up money for something that is a necessity. I know that feeling. That bit about emissions testing being done on a county by county basis is nuts - we have it countrywide here. Good luck with the Saturn, as it looks like you got a good one - and it was nice to see that big ol' Lincoln again as it's such an impressive thing!

Here in Australia we didn't have GEO brand but most of those cars were sold under there parent company n some under GM Holden. Saturn would made more sense as Holden for unknown reasons stop selling European cars n shifted to Deawoo cars rebranned as Holden, well Saturn could keep supplying European cars.

Greetings from the UK! I wanted a Trabant for a long time after renting one for an afternoon in Poland. I also have a keen interest in the former DDR/GDR. I particularly wanted the Kombi (estate) version so it would be practical for carting stuff too. I found one in December 2020. It arrived in pretty poor shape, and after being stored away I've been working on it since May of this year (2024), including a lot of welding on the floor. It is now very close to being ready for inspection! They are certainly a quirky little car, I get stopped all the time by people asking what it is, about the engine etc. Yours looks in great condition, well done!
