Well, here's my current set of wheels purchased with the intention of helping me commute to the city in winter. Failed it's 'Przegląd'(or MOT) recently on a few minor things but money in the right hands and it was surprisingly easy to get a pass stamp without doing any work to the car. I'm not totally irresponsible and I have since fixed the faults by myself. Thanks to my Dad, I am reasonably handy with cars and these skills have definitely saved me a few bob here...so thanks Dad =)
Of course, my last car was a company car (that's right, an English teacher with a company car). I hated driving in it on Polish roads and I also had one or two run ins with the Policja (Read here).
I've named this car 'Lenore' and she is a 1.6l 1989 Golf - she set me back a meagre 700PLN and she, surprisingly, runs perfect and is also fast enough to worry aggressive overtakers.
Expect more posts in the future venting my hatred towards Polish drivers and Polish roads.
It's a good choice for the famous Polish roads. ^^
ReplyDeleteI'd be happy if I could buy and ride with something like this myself. Nowadays I must go with a train about 6:30 AM, and it's just perfect time-fitting to a school schedule. I'm afraid, that in winter it might be quite problematic, as far, as I know Polish Trains. :(
Thank's for visiting my blog. :) I'm only a little curious how much did You understand as an Englishman, quite fresh in Polish? ^^
You know, given enough time, I understand everything. I'll be honest, it took a little dictionary work to understand your blogging but I got there. Eventually, I'll get the motivation to write a response, po polsku of course :)
