This 1986 Yugo GV was $3995 in 1986. Today I found out why it's still worth $1000 today, and why it's one of the most interesting cars for the money, by putting it on my lift.

You said bad quality, but why is Yugo running well after 31 years?
Bosko Velicanstveni when well maintained they'll keep on going.
Because it was in the movie Die hard with a vengeance. Maybe it still seeks vengeance.
This one was not used much. The ones that were actually used didn't last. You will notice that this car is one of few.
.
I had two Yugas and both of you served me well! Only because of American interference with Yugoslavia and consequently its breakup I did not have the third of this great car! anyway, the car was virtually insurmountable from at least regular maintenance and served its purpose, brought you from point a to point b which was the point of the vehicle was cheap! whoever uses a car to get in the company, you should buy more expensive models of recognized brands! and Yugo was just a means of transport from point a to point b, so it was rude to crazy from him! Greetings!
@zlati70 My dad had one of those and pretty much I spent my childhood with it. The only time I liked it was when I saw it in "Die hard with a vengeance". It was funny.
I learned to drive on a Yugo. #Balkan life
Me too man, me too.
i learned to drive on a volga m-21 1964 full white car my grandpa owned it... uhhv memories
Kirca Me too and I still have it
YEs..my first car was Yugo..drove it 5 years until i crashed it..we had 3 yugos..grandfather bought his in 1982 with 45 HP..and is like this in the video..father was 1987 and mine was 1989 65 HP ..after i crash it i bought yugo florida and drive it for long time until engine start eating oil..then i sold it
I have got 3 yugos,one almost new,one tuned and one project(post apocalyptic with 6 wheels)
A person goes into an auto parts store and asks, "Do you have a gas cap for a Yugo?" Person behind the counter says, "Sounds like a fair trade."
Thats a new one!
I've heard it 5 years ago Lorenzo.
xD
"Do you need a lift? No - Yugo. Nice car good mielage cheap to maintain.
Mr V that was a horrible joke 😕👏👏👏👏
Q. Why does a Yugo have rear a window defroster?
A. To keep your hands warm as you push it.
Old unfunny joke. You didnt come up with it and i've heard it a million times before.
Who hurt you, Lorenzo?
I wasn't going for groundbreaking comedy or originality Lorenzo, so off you fuck.
So what I got out of this video is that that Yugo is worth $1000 because the radiator cap works. They were junk new, rusted out before the warranty expired and you couldn't get junk parts to replace the crap that was installed. Gotta love the communist mentality of the time.
Oh and the Fiat engine acronym....Fix It Again Tony.
What is the definition of an American engineer?
Someone who can design a disposable beer can that will last 20 000 years but cannot design a car that will last 5.
its the jacking point
They were on ALL of the air-cooled VW's as well.
Lada Niva and the 2104 had those jacking points as well.
this is the first video i seen from this guy i think but judging by the lift he kind of a car guy and never seen a jacking point i mean they usuaaly look different but u know its not rocket science
USMC I think I'm a dick, but lets face it, nothing on this list is something to aspire to.
Yes it is, my parents had one
About Yugo - that was my first car back in the 1994.... Actualy it is not that bad car at all, problem was with mass production or more accurate there was produced more cars than factory could make and normaly there is problem with quality because of it. Also they tryed to make it cheepest possible..... So we knew for flaws factory made and redone it in propper way.
A lots of people back than had a tuned Yugo's and the car is great for tuning, easy to work on and compatible with large number of other mostly Italian cars (Fiat, Lancia). We have start with body/chases and after some spot welding and making body harder (similar like any other sport cars) most important was to change suspension - to put some quality shocks and lower the car. Next was the brakes - depends of what engine you put in the car and that was not a big job... Even with propper tuned factory engines (you have to change pistons, crankshaft, engine head - or tune it by changing valves, work on intake, outake channels, etc etc... List is sure endless LOL) You got a propper sport car - great fun to drive, reminds me on go kart :D 1.1 factory engine was tuned from stock 55 to 65, 75 all to 100+ HP but that was heavy tuning and very expensive for sure. Great thing is that if you want to swap engine you dont need to do almost any mod and mostly people used 1.6 Fiat engines (Fiat Tipo) and now we have crossed a line and from "silly toy" we have a lots of power on a very light car. Some ppl had 2.0 engines too.... Next - transmission.... That factory one I had was very bad - gear ratios was very badly and easy fix was to take it from old models - short gears and 4 instead of 5 gears (Zastava 101) that is perfect for 1.1 engines. What I like about Yugo is fact there is no electronics in it (exept injection fuel system if you have one), no ABS, no any of that stuff - everything is in your hands, direct...... Symple, feeling that YOU drive car
loool
In Brazil we had the Ladas and the Fiat 147 that was a better Fiat 126, they were bad cars, but they still run today, like the Beetle that was the most common car here during decades.
I had a blast man!! Thanks for having me!!
Nice car. hopefully you guys were able to tighten up that wobbly shifter and keep it tight.
ah, yugo, car of my teenage time when I used to live in Yugoslavia. just change oil and he will serve well
Austin's Garage 11:18 That is where you slide in the factory car jack to lift the car in case of a flat or any other reason that would require you to lift the car.
that nut sets the whole tone of the car. tighten it - and you get a lamborghini.
it's not something to be messed with.
So, did you tighten up that shift linkage bolt, and did it have any effect?
The slots on the bottom of the car are Jacking points. The jack looks like a T on its side. You slide the jack in to the slot, put base on floor and wind it up :D
you are totally right
Every Eastern block car used them. I had the same on a Moskvich 2140

I have Autism and my special interest is Automobiles :D
VAZ aka LADA has the same, my grandad used it evrytime he changed wheels, bought the car back in 86, sold it 2010 with 110k km on it
I love how there are so few Yugos around that this exact same one keeps popping up on different TH-cam channels.
A car guy that can't recognize a Jack point.
I love Yugos! My buddy had a gray one with red trim back in the early 90's, guessing it was a higher end one, because it looked sporty. I was always amazed at how thin the doors were, and how it felt like a go-cart going through the turns. Good video, brought back a lot of memories!
Those model were Koral's, they were sport editions of the regular Yugo.
My mother had one (I'm from Italy, it was a yugo 55 (50 HP version) it was spartan, but for the car it was accelerated Ok and also was source of NO undue breakages. yrs early '90 It hadnyce alloy wheels
Here's Why A 1000 Year Old Yugo Is Still Worth $31 Today
Those things in the bottom of the car are for inserting the jack for the spare tire.
yup, something like this : img01-olxpl.akamaized.net/img-olxpl/655578049_2_644x461_lewarek-podnosnik-fiat-125p-polonez-dodaj-zdjecia_rev003.jpg
+Pawel - that is the original jack one that goes with the car.
There yugo again with the cheesy puns 🤣
One teacher in my college had one of this with a lift kit installed. He was Russian
sure it wasn't a Lada Niva?
Russians have Lada not Yugo
How to double the price of a yugo? You fill up the tank.
Yugo is made for 4 people, 1 guy in the drivers seat and 3 people pushing it.
Blento blentavi
Ustaso u njemu te tata napravio.
xaxaxa sigurno
What?? They inspect the Yugo's underside and don't even comment on the somewhat advanced Semi-independent rear suspension setup (the one that got improved and found its way to the Brazilian Fiat Uno until 2013)???
The uno great car in fact the suspension is derived from a fiat 128 but the 127 ritmo uno regata autobianchi a112 seat Malaga an Ibiza al used the same set up...I drove a 2010 Brazil uno and was amazed how well it handled ....the yugo didn't handle as well due to the fact they raised the car to meet the us headlight height standard upsetting the geometry
the suspension is literally TERRIBLE on the yugo lmaoooo
The 1.1 liter engines actually put out about 55hp
In Europe yes, the 1,1 liter was the "hot" engine with 55hp and the 900cc had 45 hp. But for the US market they had to make it smog compliant and the catalyst surely took away some hp.
yugo 45 had 45hp 1.0(903cc) engine and 4 gear manual transmission,yugo 55 had 1.1L 55hp engine with 5 gear manual transmission
Zastava & Yugo Cars Geo Metro 3 Cylinder Is 55 Horsepower.
61 hp with these type of carburator (Webber 32/32 DMTR)
My grampa has 1.4 engine it in, and it has about 100hp
it is 55hp model. there was also an 45hp model, but it has smaler , diferent engine with 900 cm3. Yugo is still making many people proud, and nostalgic.. greetings from Serbia!
Son wherever i go, yugo too.
I had one Yugo and I learned to love it, I bought it because its status of a rare car and its bad reputation.
Unibody construction is far more solid than a Suzuki SA310 (Forza) of that era. I like how the door is one solid piece instead of 2 welded pieces like in a Suzuki SA310.
The tubes are to slide the jack into. The car literally cannot fall off the jack. I don't know why all cars don't have this. Also you could jack up both wheels making it very easy to rotate the tires.
Things on the both sides that you saw under the car are for manual jack lift that should be somewhere in the original tool kit. When you are changing the tire you slide the axle of jack lift into one of those metal frames and you lift the car :)
I had the extremely rare wagon version called the "We-go"
Tavarish is the kind of guy that doesn't point out a Yugo's quirks and features!!
I survived frontal crash in Yugo 55 .Its not so bad :)
Zoran Paulic verujem
profile pic ?????
I died from frontal crash in Yugo. I feel sad :(
So you hit a rabbit?
+Skoda130 Rabbit survived
Ah yes, I remember my old white '86 yugo. Brings back a lot of memories. Used to drive 60 miles a day back and forth from work. Put 2 heavy winter Dunlop snow tires on the front and it cut through everything. It was like a tractor. I thought that car was small until I seen a smart car.😉
I want to see you fix it up for that guy.
@@poopslots Lol! I don’t even remember posting that. Love it!
As a young man it gave me easy of mind, I never had to save up money to buy new tires or do repairs, it was so cheap. It really is the best car for a young student.
When they leak that much oil you can't get rust
Mitchell Wise they designed it like that so it wouldnt rust
My dad had the same issue, he did not put oil on the new filter gasket so it tore on install.
We had 4 Yugo's for a while. Two that could be driven, one was just for spare parts (had two motors) those three were all white. The last one was red (dads favorite color!) it actually had an air conditioner, not sure what all had to be done to get it able to drive but just after it got fixed my sister hit a deer and totaled it... (I think the deer was fine) I learned to drive in one of them. When looking for parts you would have to reference fiat pretty often. Dad got pretty good at replacing starts motors. Much memories, I'll have to show this video to my dad. He wanted to weld a couple of them together and make a station wagon, called it a Wego.
when your speedometer does not work- you fix it...You don't make 30 videos about how crappy your car is...
Heck. Plug GPS in cig lighter for speedometer
@Jonathan Eddy - That's utterly ridiculous. On Ebay and others you can get whatever parts, quite cheap.
BTW a speedometer cable 15$, took at least 15 seconds to find it. ;-)
It's kind of obvious the car owner is way more interested in making videos than fixing, properly, whatever is needed.
@Jonathan Eddy actually yugo is designed to fit almost every part from other cars same era with minor changes
I worked at a car dealer that sold them. Once I was moving shelves in the parts dept. Found a head gasket and intake gasket under a few of the shelves. That was about 1999 or so. Was told they were really easy to fix.
I daily drive a 1108cc 45hp carbureted car and to be honest in a 720kg shell its enough power. And the car is more fun than anything i have ever driven. The car is a Renault 5.
You know what's interesting... I live in Serbia (where Yugo is made), I actually bought Yugo new 2008 and it looks almost exactly the same, no innovation (airbags, electric windows, etc.) just more bulky bumpers and some interior design if I can call it that way in 2008. But I have no bigger problems with it for full 8 years (every day driving, going to work staff like that).
Cheep for maintenance low fuel consumption, even upgrade it to LPG so it was sort of a green car. :)
It's a great video man, keep it up.
Take a look under a Fiat, Ford or any other front wheel drive of this era and the design is the same. The fact you don't recognise a jacking point is a bit scary :)
And the Yugo was actually a FIAT design. FIAT 127.
If you were 'closer' (like, on the same continent), I'll give you a nice Yugo or two to put on your lift to see how easy it is to make all around upgrades for small amount of money. :)
Nice video and yes, that particular Yugo is in really good shape for it's age! Stay good.
The underpinnings are from a fiat128 ,the part you mention is for the jack 'have one of this a long time ago a gvx with a five speed shifter and a 1300 motor drive it for 16 years and sold it running!!
The84gasman GVX was so much better than the GV. I had both and loved the GVX. Put 120K on it and still ran great, used no oil and got over 35 mpg.
A friend had one in high school (87). He made a banner on the top windshield that read "YUGO TO HELL".
As they used to say in my town: "if you're not carefull with your Yugo, you-go through the window".
What a wonderful little car. I used to have one. I sort of regret selling it, but it was a nightmare to get parts for. But I love the design. Especially the fact that it has 2 doors. Just try and find a 2 door hatchback today. The Toyota Yaris 2 door may still exist. I replaced it with a 1972 Ford Pinto woodgrain wagon (2 doors, 4 speed) and it is a very fun car to drive, work on, and it gets a lot of attention. And most parts are still available for it, with the exception of body parts. Crash it and you are out of luck.
I love the fact that the Yugo has a carbureted engine, no airbags, no ABS, pretty much no electronics at all. I wish cars were still like that. I'm assuming that since somebody replaced the cat that it has to be emissions inspected? That's one neat thing about my Pinto, it is old enough to be exempt from emissions inspections, so I can do whatever I want with it. I already have a 2 barrel Weber on it. I'm seriously considering putting an old school 289 V8 in it.
OMG. It's for the jack.I'm in Florida as well. Tap into your house AC and install an 8" vent out on your garage. I put mine the celling and it helps a lot.Not as cool as the house but makes it much more bearable. A couple of cheap fans help as well.
I once had a 1981 Subaru GLF. The ignition fell out, so I used a light switch to turn the ignition on, and a hidden doorbell switch to start the engine. No one could steal that car, unless it was towed. :)
Ima li ovde naših
Mrdjan Jozic jugo je leca 😊
Those slots underneath the car on both sides are for the jack. They are placed right in the middle between two axels so jack can lift both wheels of the ground when you want to change the tyre
Those slides on the bottom are for a jack lift
Zoran Šarac i know you are not lying because your name is clearly Eastern European haha
superturboawesome1 Yes, my father had Yugo but he never used those because they were so rusty. And the carr is to heavy for them.
Yesterday I learned that youtube kept me subscribed but hard-deactivated notifications for Tavarish's channel, had to go manually out of curiosity, only to find it was under active as f updates and did not go sudden death many many months ago. Now it works again. Thanks youtube..
Od juga ako nista napravis traktor
Falkon ma bicikl
Da brate
Na biciklu je moj drugar stavio motor od juga i takmicio se sa motorima.
I was a tech at a Goodyear auto service center back in the nineties. Had a customer bring a yugo in with a no start. Easy to diagnose, had a bad ignition module. Bad news was, took 6 weeks to get one. After I finally got it and installed it, car ran fine. But, man, the wait for parts...😛
How to double Yugo's value?
Fill up the tank
(that is local joke)
I can't get over how much that car is like the 1979 Fiat 128 that I bought new. The engine was close (mine had a 1300cc) the price was exactly the same (even though the Yugo was 7 years later), the front disk brakes, the spindly shifter, the spare tire location, the jacking ports.. pretty much everything you showed reminded me of the Fiat. That said- I loved that Fiat. :D
There is a joke here in Serbia (where yugo is made).
What is extra equipment that comes with yugo? A bus ticket.
You are complaining about Yugo America... You should see ordinary Yugo for Yugoslavia!
Actualy for yugoslavia it had stronger engines because in US they were cut with HP because off emissions ..mine was 65 HP and i dont thing that there was that version in US
dzonikg I think it was. Yugo 65 A...
Zviki Yugo 55 1991. First car,first time with a girl on backseat. Man.. that was time. 😊
Vitez sa Vozdovca Yeah, it was... But I liked Zastava 101 more 😊
Zviki More room i agree,but personaly i never liked him. 55 was my little racer 😊
Those extra side bars under the car are the jack points. I had an 86 yugo and loved it.
bravo tovarish Yugo rules
Two dudes sweating their asses off in a Yugo....seriously the best video ever!!
Nice Intro man.
Thanks
The mountings are for a car jack which fits in there.
Now this YUGO is perfect in your garage & it suits you. It fits & goes great with the surrounding & the area. This is a keeper for you.
Dal je moguce hahahahah by the way awesome video tavarish
Aleksa Marković moguće,moguće haha
Aleksa Marković Halo
Aleksa Marković jajaja
To ti pricam
Momci sta se radi
I noticed that the are windows in your garage. You can buy a "window A/C unit" and install it in one of the garage's windows. believe me it'll help a lot in the summer.
He has a floor ac unit that has a hose that goes out the window for exhaust. You can see it in the first of the video on the left side
wait so the yugo costs $30 and its 1000 year old?
Accurate.
no it's costs 31$ 🙄
Greek Legend 26 τουλάχιστον στην Ελλάδα😂😂
Tavarish Omg you replied
Alex Grivas ετσιιι
Owned a second hand Yugo very basic but had no problems no leaks & very easy to work on .Bought a Talbot Samba & that was like a luxury Yugo.
Why do people make fun go Yugos but not Fiat 127s and 128s?
build quality, material quality and reliability. If the Yugo was actually made out of rust it would rust slower, and when it rusts away it is a blessing.
People make fun of Yugos because of Americans. Yugo was the cheapest new car you can buy in USA - so naturally the jokes came with the territory.
The majority of the jokes are mythical and kinda stuck with it.
I OWNED A YUGO here in ex Yugoslavia and I can tell you there are several myths and Ill dispell them for you.
1. Zastava cars were not UNRELIABLE. This was the greatest injustice made by american folklore.
People here drove 30-40 year yugos and still drive them. I welcome you to visit Serbia and see for yourself.Even today, 10 years after the last Yugo rolled out - people drive them.
2 .The quality of the materials used is defenetely not low. They sure made cuts everywhere and used only basic functional design - but that dashboard's plastic is one tough motherfucker.
3. the assembly quality of the interrior was a DISASTER. This is where the jokes started, One can easilly make a case against Yugo just by presenting the interior.
The assembly of the chassis, drivetrain, engine and transmission was assembled with quality and security in mind.
Mind you, Yugo had to pass all sorts of US car safety standards in 1987 and it did it with flying colors.
All I can say about this car is - IT IS SPARTAN. BUT THEY CUT ONLY IN THE AREAS WHERE YOU CAN GO WITHOUT SOMETHING.
4. Yugos rusted as every other car
Another thing that frustrated Americans was the small engine. This was maybe the crucial reason why they totally smeared the Yugo. Americans are used on 6-8 cylinder cars with lots of horsepower and now here is a car that goes from 0-60 mph in 10+ seconds.
What really pisses me off is they dont mention that ALL THAT SLOWNESS WAS ALREADY ADVERTIZED BY THE MAKER. THE ENGINE HAD 40 HORSEPOWER and stupid Americans expect to burn tires with it.
presonally, I think not even Americans can build a better car in that price range. The car was made mainly as a city, town car for students and not a limousine for comfort and long distances. This si whta lots of Americans need to know before approaching a Yugo and not to compare it with other cars.
RoboTube I live in the US and Yugo was a piece of shit.
+ Becki Youre a chick- I dont take chick's opinions about cars seriously ... So yeah thanks for replying though
haahhaahhaaahahahah
I'm from Serbia. Yugo is a Serbian car. It was named after Yugoslavia well short Yugo Yugo ride. most of the Balkans, is a rare occurrence to see Hugo somewhere so far away, and when I see him I'm surprised and I'm proud because Serbia failed to sell at least one specimen in a mighty State. We can't find a yugo in that State. Way to go. Greetings from Serbia to serve for many Yugo long. :*
i would love to have such a car but in perfect condition
In European tight-up city centers, it is ideal transport. It is a city car.
Holes under the car in 11:00 minutes - thats for lifting car when changing a wheel. :)
And if that Yugo is 55 HP then it has 1116 cubic cm of displacement, Yugo 45 has 903 cubic centimeters of displacement and 45 HP.
Those things here in Macedonia are like 100 Euros.
Emir Demirovski hahaah
Hey there, I don't know if anybody answered I can't read all the comments, but those things that you said are maybe for forklift or something, they are actually for a car jack that is usually where the spare tire is or in the trunk. Car jack for yugos has a square pole that you slide into the opening in order to lift yugo. Generally yugos for US were produced with better metal components, that is why you can shut the door that easily and there is no rust. That is not how I remember my yugo :) Interior and the rest were pretty much the same.
Yugo girl
gimme piz-a
I worked on them back in the day. The scary little things had two really dangerous "features" that I found especially alarming:
1. there is no subframe of any sort under that thing (go ahead and watch the video again). No frame! Zip! Nada!
2. the brake system is not a split diagonal design.
Seventy-five percent of braking is done by the front wheels. In a split diagonal brake system, the left front brake is connected hydraulicly to the right rear, and the right front is connected to the left rear. In this way, if you lose hydraulic pressure to one front brake, you still have pressure to the other. With the Yugo, if you lose one front brake, you lose both. As anyone knows who has played around on wet streets with knee-brakes, having only the rear brakes operable makes for easy spin-outs.
There are few cars I refuse to drive. The Yugo is on that list.
Here is how a real Yugo should look like (pimped up). I found some old photos from my first car (Yugo Koral 55 HP) and decided to share them with you guys. Hope you like my pimped up yugo... and see for yourself that even Yugo can look decent enough to drive in... :D I had it for four years and never had any problems with it.... ibb.co/hHNckQ
dobar 👍
ahhah ma sta dobar odlican 😁

They made a 'sporty' version of this thing called the GTY to "compete" with the GTI. It had blacked out trim and a hood scoop. Would be cool to see someone with one of those.
Pa kad je srpski mora biti vredan toliko para.. :-)
nije sve u parama
Vladimir Djordjevic Zato Yugo ima dusu.
medalalon;D nije Srpski vec Jugoslavenski ;)
Nije sve jugoslovensko srpsko. Sve srpsko je bilo jugoslovensko
medalalon;D srbski....malo sutra!
11:34 They are used to lift the car when you have a flat tire,there is a jack with a metal arm that goes in the slot and then you lift the car up 😀
Tavarish have you lost weight?
Yes. No.
don't lie you've lost a loot :)
Jonathan Karlsson if you talked as much as he does you would lose weight too, lmao
dude you suck ....
mike43v3r relax princess, it wasn't an insult, it's a fan taking an interest.
I know this is an older video. I think you've really hit your stride with the recent Lambo videos, but since you asked for feedback: I think the format of "examine the mechanics of the car, then do a quick drive segment" complements Doug "examine the quirks and features of the car, then do a quick drive segment" videos very well. So if you start doing these types of videos again, I think it's a great idea to have a drive segment in them.
More videos of the SL & S-Class
Will do!
My gf in high school had one that same color. It was an '87 that her dad bought her in '89, and it already had rust on it. I remember when they were introduced in America. Advertised as starting at $3,990, but it was closer to $5k when you add in the required destination charge and other junk charges. Hyundai was introduced that same year ('86) in the US and advertised their Excel for $4995. That extra grand got you a lot more of a car, though still crappy back then.
#Tavarish Hey i am from Serbia, and from city called Kragujevac where Yugo were made. I have Yugo for 10 years, and it is soo good car when you upgrade it, i was going on sea with it in Montenegro Budva, and i have overtaken Skoda Fabia at speed 130Km/h, i swear i do not lie. You can contact me on this profile for more info about Yugo.
Djora yes where parts are available this little car is a blast. In the US it didn't fare very well. Fiat originally designed the basic layout. It didn't live up to the standards of US cars at the time but I can see having owned one that it had so much more potential. I currently own two fiat 500s and I love them
Will Thompson Man,i think that more girls are fucked on backseat of yugo,then in some corvette. 😁
Djora kod nas mozes od juga i traktor napravit ako treba
and not only corvette
As I said, the car had potential. Horrible build quality . Good engine fun to drive. I’m glad you can modify it and enjoy it. Update. We traded off one 500 and bought a 500l made in Serbia in the old Yugo factory. And we love it. Commmunist build quality sucked. I hope things are going well in your country. All my best
People pull up in that car and are told "you gotta go" "go now, away from here" "you go!" "Yugo"
last
Those bars are jack points; they're very common on European cars. German cars usually use pads, Italian cars (and the Yugo 45/GV is a Fiat 124 made under license) often use bars like that.
Nek lajkaj ko osim mene jos uvek ima juga
Sta ti znaci "Nek lajkaj" ?

rectangular tubes that are located on wheels on the left and right side of the Yuga are used to place a manual car jack and lift the side at which the drum is punctured and put the reservoir wheel on the engine
if u haven't found out yet what those things were under the car that u thought was for shipping... u slide the jack into those when u jack it up to change the tire, and yes it lifts both tires on either side.
@11:00 that's for old Comecon jacks so it won't slide and cut your hands while you're changing tires.
I had one in the late 80's. it had an electrical system that was unusual. Had to carry spare fuses that you could only get through Yugo dealers. Also it blew fuses all the time. Tires were hard to come by to and windshield wipers. I ended up swapping the whole windshield wiper assembly with one from a 86 Yugo (mine was 87 I think) because you could not find wiper blades to fit it. It was hard to start after it rained. Then a small engine fire sealed what I think was a crack in the coil cap and this problem disappeared.
Those slots are jacking points. Also there are 4 other jacking points. Jack is located below the spare tire. You could say that there were other models. Like one one automatic transmission, cabrio (that was top model and expensive model of that time), there were models with Electronic fuel injection,... Also, that buttons on the right side of the steering wheel are for rear and front fog lights, under the FM radio there were equalizer from German Grundig, etc.
11:15 tthose things are for lifting a vehicle by lifter for changeing tires! Former Yugo driver from Serbia,Yugoslavia :)
The square brackets under either side are jacking points, common design on old Fiats, so not surprising Yugo copied them over. The jack slots into them pretty well, actually, much better than most scissor jacks in terms of how secure they are.
1.1l had 55HP .95 had 45HP those square tubular things under each side is for lift jack. You insert the corespond peace of the jack in there and it lifts whole side of the car, not just one corner at a time :)
The square tubes are used to lift the car when changing the wheels. Never drove it, but its what i remember.
One Yugo has been in a Disney Christmas Movie known as “Good Luck Charlie! It’s Christmas”
I like this channel for your wrenching videos rather than all the other channels out there that do reviews. Doing a few wouldn't be a bad thing though.
11:15 as far as i know, not 100% sure, that metal part is reinforced part of car where you put lifter below it when you are on road, but your tire is flat.
So, you loosen tire screws a bit, put lifter below that part (depending on what side of car is flat tire), and you lift whole side of car (1 front and 1 back wheel) , than you replace flat tire with tire on engine bay, you lift down car back to road, and continue driving.
11:18 That is where you slide in the factory car jack to lift the car in case of a flat or any other reason that would require you to lift the car
I am from Serbia ,homeland of Yugo and those square pipes on sides are for lifting with jack...you have to put Your factory Yugo jack in it ,and then lift car for tire change....
11:07 that thing is for jack - to lift a car with factory jack if you need to change a tire. (factory jack you get it with a car when you bought it) it have a pin which goes into that.
They weren't sold like this with all things not working, it was pretty great back then to get all of that for such a price...
