    Hi everybody! Let me improve a little bit the statistics of Eastern Europe Prius Owners :) In this very special date of Polish National Independence Day. [​IMG]
    Since August I'm the happy owner of Gen III (2010+) Black Prius (imported from France). Also since August reading and learning a lot of... especially here - the Priuschat is an awesome site.
    For the time being I try to memorise all conversion factors (gallons, liters, MPG, l/100km, Celsius, Fahrenheit... ;) However the economy - although important factor - is not the common thing in my feelings.

    Welcome aboard and enjoy your ride! Great to hear the prius invading countries such as yours. :) Do you think you will be able to get qualified service when/if you need it?

    Enjoying, enjoying... :cool:

    Means... Hey spiderman (nice to meet you) - believe me - in Poland there is no polar bears on the streets and some Prii hangs around my place as well :)
    Sure - I don't think... I know.. and I'm already a customer of authorised Toyota service station (one of the four of them available in range of not more than fifteen miles from my home). And the techs there are quite familiar with this model - not to mention the availability of spare parts an so... The new windshield (with rain sensor) I got in three days since the small accident occured recently.

    Regret - no way of close up of the photo, which is just taken from the local Toyota dealer website. But in the building, by the reception desk is one... mmm... I wish to visit the dealershop more frequently... but - maybe better not ;)
    BTW - weekend has ended - let's HUM! :D
