1975 Trabant 601 601S 0.6 2 cylinder 2 Stroke from UK and Ireland
Summary:
The best thing since sliced bread!
Faults:
The exhaust bracket up front snapped. Easily replaced.
Rear wheel cylinder leaked fluid and was replaced cheaply via the Owners Club.
Windscreen washer motor was seized when I got car. Stripped it apart, freed it off very easily.
General Comments:
Fantastic little car. I had one before (1988 model 601) and sold it. Wished I hadn't so searched the UK for another and found this one.
Great to drive, turns heads where ever I go.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
