One of the most famous and charismatic driver/car Combos ever coming from Croatia, Dejan Kopajtic and his Yugo 16v little Monster evolved through over a decade are unfortunately stopping all racing activities, starting on 2021. Mr. Kopajtic has announced his retirement from Motorsports and has put the screaming FIAT engined machine for sale.
Powered by the 1.6L Naturally Aspirated engine taken from the FIAT Bravo, here with 220Hp/9.000Rpm, the diminutive hatchback benefits from its ow weight of 725Kg to become a devastantingly quick Pocket Rocket. With all this power transferred to the front wheels through a 6 Speed Sadev sequential Gearbox, it has won countless races and achieved a great number of Class Records through the years. And on the video you can see it on one of the very last appearances the duo will ever make, at Skradin Hillclimb where it posted a tremendously impressive performance. with a place among the 10 Fastest Touring Cars present at the event overall.
We can only hope someone worthy picks up this unique machine and continues its illustrious history in deserving fashion...
