Yeah rarely I would still see them in Holland, but that was getting more and more like a collectersitem. But they look so cute!

So, if I understand correct....this dude is cleaning the car and maintaining it, but is never driving and it is one the sidewalk?? 

Weird dude,....weird

So... The owner keeps the tires pumped, but never moves it? Does he ever start the engine? If not, I hope he at least drained the fluids before storing it there! It would actually be fun to restore that one and drive it around town.

Nice photo. It *does* look pretty communist, especially in black and white!

Have I ever seen one? I've been traveling with one! How about that? :D Many people had Trabant back in communism.

I wonder to know this car is not use for driving. but why

My father even owned one maybe 20 years ago. Wow, it was crazy slow and you was supposed to cross your fingers when it was raining... It just tended stopping and refused to start before getting dry. Absolutely amazing!

>I have seen the owner a few times cleaning the car and pumping the tires.

That's hilarious @irreverent-dan. Maybe he takes the car out when you're not looking. 😂

I haven seen quite a few Trabants in my life, but none of them for years. I remember though the exhaust smoke smell of them and the noise :)

Such a sick capture!

Great picture to capture the sense of place. Never heard of the car tho.

Hi, dear Dan! 
You still can see those cars in Romania, too :)
I'm planning a trip to Bulgaria, maybe we'll have a beer together. Are you on Discord to send you a private message?

Our car is a '95 model and has a non functional right door and a decaying body. It still works.

I must say , I really really like this picture. There is something profound about it. That's gas that your man cleans it and pumps the tyres, but doesn't drive it... Like something from a comedy.. :o)

If there was a "Muscovite", "Zaporozhets" or old "Zhiguli", I would think that this photo is from Russia during the USSR

I have never seen a Trabant in real life! But I had the same feeling when I saw Lada's all over Russia while traveling there - other era, and interesting cute little cars between all the brutalist and depressing architecture :D

It was a creepy regime...thats why this car fits perfectly..

I don't know much about cars, what I do know is that I love the color grading of this photograph. ✨

Love the photo. My dad had a Wartburg car before it was hip in Denmark. I loved it but my friends would turn up their noses until they needed a ride or had to move and then they loved it.

I've never seen or even heard of a Trabant.  

I want to thank you, @irreverent-dan, for the support and upvotes on my blog.  I truly appreciate it!  🍌

Hey ... this old car looks cool... you must go and try find more :) 
In summer you can get a lot good photos when they are on the street :)
