Another one from Saxony.

A man drives his car to the junkyard, looking for replacement parts. He greets the owner and asks:
"Windshield wiper for a Trabant?"
The junkyard owner thinks for a moment, then replies:
"Sure, sounds like a fair exchange."

    The Wikipedia page on East German jokes has a few Trabant jokes.

    • What's the best feature of a Trabant? – There's a heater at the back to keep your hands warm when you're pushing it.

    • A new Trabi has been launched with two exhaust pipes – so you can use it as a wheelbarrow.

    • How do you double the value of a Trabant? – Fill it with gas.

    • The back page of the Trabant manual contains the local bus schedule.

    • Four men were seen carrying a Trabant. Somebody asks them why? Was it broken? They reply: "No, nothing wrong with it, we’re just in a hurry."

    • How do you catch a Trabi? – Place a piece of chewing gum on the road.
