Our car in Hungary, our beloved Trabant was repaired. My dad gave it to the mechanic to check it and they found the reason why the handbrake was not working. The right side wheel at the back was broken out, and only one cm of metal was holding it. So we were in constant danger when were driving it, as the wheel could have been fallen out in any time. It was good to know afterall. :-)
Repairing the car cost us 220 GBP, which we split with my old man, so we payed 110GBP for that. The funny thing, if I put together all the money we spent for repairing this "beast" so far, probably we would have bought a better car already :-)
