it's fun to read the comments, especially from people who have no idea about today's cars. The Trabant was easy to maintain, today's cars cannot do without diagnostics, and sometimes a software engineer is also needed. In short, today's cars, if they break down, sometimes take so much out of your wallet that you would buy a Trabant for it. Mainly the Audi, which has a six-cylinder diesel engine, which is repaired after 150,000 km. some laugh when the worker fits the gaps, they think that it is done differently in western car factories, the same is done today. So lower the hormone and slap yourself with healing.

Apparently you have never driven a Trabi, otherwise I can't explain the nonsense you're spouting here.

The Trabant was very advanced when it first came onto the market. These composite materials were a good solution to replace the scarcely available sheet metal. Unfortunately, due to the planned economy, hardly anything was optimized or improved in the factories. They basically stood still.

У меня у одного не вызывает вопросов, почему решётку и капот гнут ногами? Они же из композитных материалов сделаны и скорее всего деформируются. Это же практически будущее, простой и надёжный автомобиль для езды, с возможностью починить в любом сервисе даже сельском, молотком и нецензурным словом.

[@flappingflight8537]

Только внешние поверхности капотов, крыля , ворот и крышу были из композитов, все остальное было из метала, включая решётки. Композитные панели были при том довольно толстыми, толщина была где-то в районе 5-6мм и поэтому не были очень лёгкие. Рама на которая всё закреплено/ приклеено сделана из деталей из прессованной жести которые собирали сваркой.

Back when the day of the week was definitely affecting the quality of the vehicle you bought. Nonetheless the simplicity and ruggedness of the vehicle that doesn’t rely on computers and electronics to operate. Fabrication of parts and adaptation at home could happen and I am sure did. The new vehicles may have some advantages, but the simplicity and ease of maintenance have my vote. No computer to shut down systems for minor faults, no reliance on unseen and high cost diagnostic machinery that is obsolete in 10 years or less with no option for repair.
