Crvena Zastava (Red Flag) cars :)
« on: 20 September 2014, 06:29:17 am »

Well, this was fun to read:

I have one.  :)     New cost around 4000 euros, cheap parts. Does consume a little more fuel, but if you don't make much mileage - it's a no brainer.

Though the limo version is a lot better - same engine, more room and the car best for driving reverse of all the cars I've driven  - great visibility:

A few years a go I was given a fiat 127 which as you know was the yugo father, so I was towed along country roads at speed till I got the car to my sisters, to save trying to turn the car we lifted the back of the car to change its direction when both wheels fell outwards, my work colleague who gave us the car forgot to tells he had undone the rear top strut mounts!! And to think I was being towed along a country road at speeds of over 40mph!!

At least it`s got indicators that work, not like most new Audi`s

Wasn't there one in one of the Die Hard films? The one with Samuel L Jackson in.
