Hello everybody! Does people discuss on this forum only the newest model ? I have been bought an old 1999 year prius (japaneese) and wonder, if anybody have an information about my topic question...I need somethis like complete idiot's guide about this car. -Tulup
The Classic User-Guide will fulfill some of that purpose. The Original model Prius is similar enough to answer the basic questions fairly well.
As you know, the NHW-10 Prius is for Japanese market only, so I believe there is no English owners manual available. The best site for the NHW-10 in English is ... http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Mk1_Prius/ Ken@Japan

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Tulup @ Apr 3 2006, 05:55 AM) [snapback]234100[/snapback]</div> Welcome to PriusChat, Tulup! Where did you find this model Prius to buy---already in Russia? Your last line is funny! In the US we might have a book titled "Prius for Dummies", as there are other books such as "Windows for Dummies" and other computer-related books with similar titles. But you want the "complete idiot's guide". :lol: Can you find someone who speaks Russian and Japanese, perhaps a Japanese student going to a university in Russia?
Hello Tulup and welcome to PriusChat! I am also very interested where did you find NHW10 model? Is it a "gray" import from Japan? I have read that there are many Japanese imported cars in Russia. I am quite sure there are only handful of Prius owners in Russia because Prius is not officially imported to Russia?

Find japaneese translator is the question of great money, i have no such possibility <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Heikki @ Apr 6 2006, 09:50 PM) [snapback]235804[/snapback]</div> Many many japanesse cars is transfered from auction to Russia (through Vladivostok city). You are right the color of my car is gray :lol:, i'm sure it is clear car. I live in Sibera town called TOMSK. It is small town but there is a lot of prius cars. Maybe the first thing because i have bought it because one of prius is parked near the office where i work...My car last owner sold it because he is waiting for new PRIUS 2004 that should be arraived here very soon.
