The Trabant, a poster car for Eastern Bloc automotive primitivism, has become the most stolen car in Hungary, according to an Internet poll. The quirky little East German export, with a body made from a weird plastic resin and an engine that even a tractor would hold up to ridicule, is now as beloved among enthusiasts as is the Beetle or Mini. Don't get any ideas, fellas, one Yugo was enough. Keep that thing where it is.
