A nice white 80

Spotted in Patra, nice white one.

Papous protests!

Since:

• Papous (my Audi-80's) existence is now punished in Greece by having its yearly road-tax more than doubled. The tax almost equals its commercial value. It would be many times more that the car's value, if Papous had an 1.6l or larger engine.

• Papous still drives around in roads with the highest accident rate in the western world (assuming Greece is a western country).

• Papous has to face heavy traffic when moving even in smaller greek citys, slalom through illegaly parked cars, in traffic that is improved only when the traffic lights break (no big deal, most of them are red anyways), or the inefficient mass transportation system is on strike.
  

• Papous pays tolls for the single-lane roads, filled with holes, named "highways", or for the use of roads that will be constructed in the future (another Greek first!).
  

• In all its 25 year life, Papous became wise, and knows that Greek roads cost unbelievable amounts of money, much more than they do in other countries (the extra money end up in who's bank account, Papous wonders...)

Therefore, Papous agrees with the people who decided not to pay tolls until they get roads.

Audi 80 Leaflet

Found this leaflet in the car, decided to scan and upload it.
I also have a mint users manual, but it is too many pages to scan...
