Wartburg was the name of an
automobile manufactured in
East Germany (DDR/GDR). It had a two stroke engine. The mark goes back as early as 1885. The automobile was produced to 1989 and was halted due to the lack of rentability in production. The two stroke engine were substituted by a 4 stroke VW motor in the last year of production, but the time and technology had pased and the car couldn't live up to modern standards. There is still cars in drivable condition and one can still see a happy Wartburg owner in his very enjoyable car.
