hi, my name is michael and I come from poland, i`m a big fan of youngtimers, great forum you have there, I want to introduce one of my retro cars...

i`m second owner, first was my uncle, original lack, tires and everything, only 49 000 km mileage, very good condition....

[twincammy]

love it.
i can just picture the sound it makes too....

[MetroLee]

Coorva! ;D Lovely. How come the plates had to be changed?

[skoda_norman]

don't the plates have to be changed with a new owner?

lovely car, its good to see them being preserved. i remember visiting poland in '97 and seeing them everywhere and since then the numbers have been dwindling steadily.

its encouraging to see more and more polish people are becoming enthusiastic about the old polish motors.

where abouts are you living micab?

my parents are in the process of buying a house in Poland actually. What a fantastic country it is.

[micab]

I had to change plates becouse i`m new owner :/

I live near szczecin which is located ca. 150km from berlin/germany and ca. 120km from baltic sea

skoda_norman, you`re right, there was a lot of 126p cars couple years ago, becouse it was the cheapest car, now people prefer to buy cheap golf or astra from germany, and polish cars isn`t so popular like in the past
where will be house of your parents ?

lol!!!!!!!!!!!
that hilarious.. u come on here with ur lil 126p, then proceed later to admit to x3 more proper cars..
the golf is sexual.. as is the benz..
I'm guessing the little fiat has most sentimental value, where the other 3 are born from ur restoring skills, I guess..
Very good mate all lovely stuff.
Ale maluchy wiadac wszedze w polsce..

Benz for my win.

Love all the cars, and detail you are going into with the Golf Mk 1

Let me see if I can spell this right, Zawoya. Its near Krakow, not the biggest place in the world.



I do like the 126.

What a lovely little car....if it were mine I'd want to go outside and give it a cuddle!

8-)Very cool car..welcome to RR.

that benz is lovely! the fiat isa cute little beast, just make sure everythign is bolted down tight and in top nic, had one crach down the road from us a couple of years ago, at 40kph (about 25mph i think?) into the back end of a parked Ford Landau, the Fiat's drivers seat ripped off its mounts and the bonnet came loose with 1 corner coming through the windscreen! at 40kph! absolutely totalled the poor little car, front suspension shat itself and everything, definitely keep yours in top shape just incase the worst happens.
