    I hated the car so much I tried to kill it. I eventually succeeded.

    Read a Russian novel in between moving away from the lights and changing into second gear.

    Whatever can go wrong will go wrong.

    Being seen in one will ruin your image completely, but thankfully I never had that much street cred to begin with anyway.

    Comfort

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Seats are like concrete. Passengers act as shock absorbers.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    1 out of 5 1.0

    I used to park it overnight in some dodgy places with the doors unlocked and the keys in the ignition. The next morning it was usually the only car on a strangely empty street.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    I found an ex-Yugo dealer. The people working there are just as unreliable as the cars.
