Via The International Herald Tribune: “ZAGREB, Croatia: Croatian police say a driver has deliberately crashed his car into the entrance of the Parliament building. No one was injured. Zagreb police spokeswoman, Aleksandra Ljuba, says the 34-year-old was arrested on the spot Monday. Police did not identify him. Ljuba says the motive is not known, and the man is being kept for questioning. Both the car — an old Yugo, a cheap vehicle once produced in Serbia — and the building’s doors were damaged. The driver apparently surprised the guards at the St. Marc’s Square, which is also a site of the government building and the Constitutional Court.”

Yugo jokes... as in, Yugo but you can't stop?
HAY GUISE! -Yugo can haz bailout too? kthx.
The Yugo managed to damage the doors? Huh.
The best Yugo joke I ever read was the Consumer Report's review. As I recall, one of the testers injured his foot getting in and out of the back seat. I also recall a mobile home dealership in Tye, TX giving a Yugo away (well, I think you actually had to pay $1) with every purchase of a double-wide.
