I felt it was like a go cart with a body, and even more fun because you could take a friend with you.
On my headstone it will say: Please switch off mobile phones. I'm trying to get some sleep.

@ Hotrodder: even when we use AI to reduce your previously published photo of your Sprite to its essential forms, it still looks impressive. Not a go cart at all. In fact, it’s the kind of thing a lad’s dreams were made of. At least, from the perspective of a European who has rarely even laid eyes on a proper Chevrolet V8 or anything similar in those days, let alone driven one or had the budget for one in the first place.

Something missing in the Berlin sightseeing trip, American style: the original Trabant 2-stroke sound and smoke. Elsewhere in Berlin
there are plenty of other interesting murals to be found.




Imagine the noise of adventure, a real Trabi safari.


Finally, a few words about the fall of the Berlin Wall – a story that actually remained a secret for a long time. In fact, it is a tribute to the robustness of the Trabant, which was made from an exceptionally strong plastic material called Duroplast.
