Prius in Italy

bladerun · 10-17-2005, 10:12 AM

I own a Prius since Christmas 2004, and I drove about 12000 kilometers. My Prius is great. I just complain that Toyota did not made available cruise control in Italy.
I would like to exchange opinions with other italian Prius owners.
Regards
Claudio

I own the Prius since last Sept. 19, just drove 1200 km and feel very well and satisfied.
As you told, the only complain is the Cruise Control, not present in Italy.
With the internet chat help I also succeeded in transferring the telepone directory from my Motorola A1000 and this is very usefll too.
Now I am waiting for the possible recall from Toyota (they say that more tha 160000 Prius will be recalled around the world) to correct a software bug and a connector problem.: did you hear about it?

Ciao Claudio,
congratulazioni,sei uno dei pochissimi Italiani che ha una Prius!!
Figurati che un mio carissimo amico ne ha cercata una a Roma,nessuna concessionaria Toyota l'aveva in stock!!!!
Speriamo che il petrolio finisca presto.....
Io ho la T4;
Dai un'occhiata a questo sito,ho creato una gamma di prodotti contro gli SUVs,ed alcuni per pubblicizzare le macchina ibride;
Mandalo a tutti i tuoi amici;grazie
Pasquale

I know of at least one owner from Italy that went to France to buy the Prius just to get the cruise control...

But since then the parts list for the NHW20R cruise control have been posted, so you can add it if you really miss it. See the files section of http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Prius-Europe/

But you'll meet more Italian owners here: http://it.groups.yahoo.com/group/prius/

WHERE in Italy? Why confine yourself to opinions of other Italians?

Unfortunately the it.groups.prius does not exist anymore....

But the good news is that there is a new forum for Italian owners which can be found at www.hybrid-synergy.eu and any Italian speaking member is welcome!

Your link at www.hybrid-synergy.eu is not working.

This one is not so bad.
You can find all Toyota models including a special Hybrid car section, that means PRIUS!
