A 1990 Yugo police car in Croatia pictured in 2010. Many mechanics and even Zastava factory workers agree that the "best" Yugos ever were built between 1988 and early 1991.

In order to avoid rust caused by road gritting, hard PVC coating was used throughout the underside, sills and valances.
In the year 2000, Car Talk voted it the "Worst Car of the Millennium". [40] The Yugo was also included on Time magazine's list of the 50 worst cars of all time and CNN's list of the "10 Most Questionable Cars of All Time". Dan Neil called the Yugo the "Mona Lisa of bad cars", with "the distinct feeling of being assembled at gunpoint."
