It was junk IMHO, but he thought it was a great commuter car and put 300K miles on it before it wasn't worth saving any more. | | | Re: What the.......??? | Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 1,286 | Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 1,286 | There was a guy in Hemmings Sports and Exotic Cars magazine who had one. He upgraded all the weak points and made his into a great little car. Apparently it's such a close rip of of a Fiat design that the far superior Fiat parts actually fit.
That van looks a lot like a VW but the slope of the rear is wrong, and that guy would be a giant, so you must be right about it being a Yugo.
One more Yugo note, they stopped importing the GV in the early 90's but just stopped making them in Yugoslavia in 2008. | | | Re: What the.......??? | Joined: Oct 2007 Posts: 1,317 old hand | old hand Joined: Oct 2007 Posts: 1,317 | Not so much a Fiat rip, they were built with the mechanicals of the Fiat 128 under license from Fiat, with a body style that closer resembled the 127
