Haha, i don't actually have against trabants.. I love them..
The 2stroke engine is véry tunable.. because it isn't an expending exhaust.. making an proper exhaust system (every cylinder has to have his own exhaust in a 2stroke) and some decent carburators, and all that stuff, and you can get about 6 times more power out of a trabi..
But if it is safe to drive......
I don't really like the Ka neither, but I also don't like the Polo.. but on the otherside, if you know what it does..
You gotta love them..! Maintainance? - zip nada nothing.. except for some tires and stuff like that.. Gas?.. 95 octane.. the cheapest.. and it does 5-6 litres per 100km (if you drive carefully, driving long 80km/h roads (about 50-60MPH I believe)
It never let's you down, is cheap, has a roof over your head, and in the cities a large 4x4 or a car with 400+ horsepower is simply useless.. (Europe.. wow.. fantastic
)
I'm a BMW fan though, but can't afford it. Still young, lots of costs.. that's going to take a while
Sure, someone may one day kill me with my own gun.
But they'll have to beat me to death with it because it's empty.
A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.
, on another forum I visit a member there has just restored an East German GAZ69 Staff car 
I'm there for my education.. and use it to transport me around the base.. (btw it's the long version.. not the normal version)
