Trabant 601

Description
The best known car from Germany. Eco-friendly, powerful, economical and fast. Only 50s to reach 100 km/h, but fortunately it was quick enough in a city, thanks to two-stroke tendency to rev high.

Produced in Zwickau, 601 was the most popular model with almost 3 millions units produced over 26 years (1964-1990). This car was an export hit, not only in Eastern Europe. I'm too lazy to list all of the countries, go to wikipedia or sth.

Functions of the model:
- it drives
- has lights, l to enlighten urself
- indicators activated with mouse1 and mouse2
- working steering wheel
- openable doors, boot and bonnet
- somehow detailed engine bay, I tried my best
- includes some distinctive features of an early model
- does have blue smoke at the exhaust
- it's the "S" trim, feel the prestige
- most of the body is made from plastic material
- sadly doesn't do two stroke sounds, fluppi plz fix
- made by using toolgun from gmod on keksonator's trabant (mods pls no ban)

Since I know a little bit more about Trabants, I can give You some interesting facts, in case You're still reading.
- no fuel gague, stick that stick to measure fuel level you sissy boi
- actually trabants performed great in the 1990s crash test, only downside was...
- ...fuel tank mounted under the bonnet
- due to this (^) fact, you had a tap rather than fuel pump, because DDR mastered simplicity
- u needed to pay extra to scrap trabant in the 90s, this is why you can sometimes find more trabants in forests than mushrooms
- actually deluxe trim had optional fuel gague
- heater worked by heating up air using an exhaust muffler, hope we don't get a leak here
- imo it's one of the best cars ever made, i wanted one since i was 2 years old or so

Vehicle made especially for our East Bloc roleplay, taking place at late 70s Poland and East Germany. Come and take a look!

I prefer Yours, to be honest, more details! And better proportions. Like really...
Thanks for the kind words anyways! Can't wait to see the unexpected comeback of DDR-Masterbuilder, when he's finally got time ^^

Very nice! My ugly vehicles can not keep up. I've chosen the small scale of my vehicles myself. :)
