That is 100% true. And most of them WERE junks!

That was true, but not anymore!!! Because of those idiots importing junks to
Poland they also made a new law about two years ago. Right now no one is
allowed to register a car as a KIT or Rebuilt, or anything of that matter.

I can bring it as "spare parts", but I will never be able to get it
registered. No kit cars, no "Smithsmobiles", no cars that were put together
by someone else than factory.

As you can see, it really sucks living in a country that was literally
destroyed by 50 years of communism..... Thank got it's all changing now.

Take care,
