I don’t know about Yugoslavia in particular, but in other communist countries you had to put your name on the list, get approved by the party, wait 12 years (not two), pay the price of the car, and then pick it up at the factory.
Yugoslava, in particular, had a lively and successful automotive industry under Tito. It collapsed when they lost their primary export market in the 90s.
