Looking at your sig, it would seem that you like Polish automobiles. Do you like the Syrena?

Not Polish, but I love cars with 2-stroke engines. And the Syrena is just one more car in a complicated family tree of modern front-wheel-drive cars that starts with the pre-war DKW.
Syrena, Wartburg, SAAB, Suzuki all were inspired by DKW designs. Do you also know about the "Micrus"? these are rarer than the Syrena but I've spoken to a Polish collector and he says that they're not too hard to find in Poland.

Ur kidding about Mikrus, right?? I'e heard about more Polish cars than most of Polish people :P. Syrena's engine was made out of 2 bicycle engine weld together.

Bicycles have engines? The Syrena wasn't that bad - it was outdated when they finally stopped making them, but at least they didn't keep it up until the 1990's like the Trabant!
Mikrus, was an ugly car - it's a copy of the German Goggomobil.
