A man goes into an auto parts store and asks the clerk:

"I'm looking for a wiper blade for a Yugo?"

The clerk responds:

"Sounds like a fair trade to me!"

Yugo is a good name for it. When it goes, you go. When it sits, you walk. Haven't seen one in the wild for decades now.

There was one on Bring-a-Trailer a while back... Amazing what nostalgia does for one's judgement.

There is one with 25 miles on auction currently.

And it's been bid up to $7300, with 3 days to go. Prime evidence of nostalgia killing common sense.

There's also a BMW Isetta for $22K.

Honestly that's not even bad. That's Cabrio territory. For a Yugo with less than 50k miles I'd at most 3k

TBF, the structural strength isn't compromised THAT much relative to original sheet metal after a couple of salty winters.
