But understanding Cyrillic will give you the cars. I can see Trabant and possibly Mosckvich and the 2101 etc are probably Ladas but we need to know how much and from when at the very least.

hairnet Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 wanted to go to boston last time i went the thing was in the next town over so places were relatively cheap this one in downtown - all the places to stay were 150+ - its august but unlike here not public holiday airport was the same only one under 200 quid hilton was 348 bucks and thats with discount - and god help you if you stay near the waterfront saw a room in someones house for 85 quid that according to the reviews you could walk to 1.5 miles from the airport - that would do but then which is why this is here bed in a dorm in a hostel - 80 quid - think thats the most ive ever seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only remember it and when because I’d just bought one for my son turning 17. However the 107 had quite big doors ( and much wider than an A30), so I don’t know how they got out.

They might be a walkable distance from the thing you're trying to get to, but there's no guarantee that there will be any pavement sidewalk, so you might find yourself walking along the edge of a busy 4-lane road with 18-wheelers thundering by six inches away.

TataBobu Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Too bad I can't get my hands on an old copy of "States of the he world" book from 1975-1976, would have known how much it meant in other currencies. All I know is one leva was about 10 lei in the '80s, and that would place the Dacia 1300 price somewhere between 7000 and 8000 leva, not taking into account the eventual import tax.

Sham Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Out for a ride on the Motorsickle for the first time in a couple of weeks.... The roads are so filthy, I try to avoid trying to cope with it at night and on wet roads - it's hard to tell whats slippery and what isn't. Its chilly, but clear and winter gear is so good these days it really doesn't matter. Can't think of a better way to turn petrol into pleasure.
