Budapest - Jan 2007

Hi,

Went to Budapest this month, was pleased to see a fair amount of Eastern bloc rubbish smoking around.

Lots of late (VW engined) Trabis and Wartburgs- they seemed to outnumber Ladas and certainly Skodas.

Apologies for poor picture quality- if there was a forum called PhotoShite I would go on there and talk about my cheap Korean digital camera.

Enjoy!

That's a Dacia 1310 estate, and this particular style (4 headlamps, thick rubber round them) dates from 83 to 92 - I have some very sad knowledge of Dacias, so will hazard 1986 or possibly 87 as the year...They're pretty rare over in England. I know of only 4 existing...
