What a magnificent automobile!

Speaking Polish - I check Allegro for R129 pricing
That was quite scary experience. :eek:
It is hard to imagine in America, but at the time the car in Poland did cost something in the range of 30 years of average wages.
Back under communism my monthly wages exchanged on black market made about $35.
And trust me - there is good reason why the car has 4 horns installed.
