    Eventho I have no idea what they r talking about in the other forum (by just looking at the pics), NOW THAT'S A PRIUS MEETING!!!
    We should do something like that in North America too! Anything happening to the National/Regional Prius meeting of ours?

    Bonjour
    In France, plate numbers are codified this way:
    9999 xyz 88
    where 9999 is sequential
    xyz is alphabetic sequential
    88 is a "departement" kind of state from 01 ro 95 , 75 is Paris.

    Hope you enjoyed the pictures. :wave:

    Oh, the memories of being young, carefree and having an airline pass. Some years I was lucky enough to be in Paris as many as four times.

    That's really cool. Nice to know that the Prius obsession is international. Now my wife knows that I belong to an even larger group of crazy people. Hurray!!

    Thanks for sharing, Frenchie!

    LOL!

    Awesome pics.!!!

    You should have paraded them through the Arc of Triumph, with someone waving a Toyota flag while sitting on top of the first Prius!

    Cool stuff though...! :mrgreen:

    :p Good Joke, :p
    Mr Toy was not part of the band.
    So we had a nice ''spontaneous" event and we had no problem with Police (because we got out without any noise or smoke :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: . )
    Maybe, next time Toy will offer us the restaurant.
    We prefer, common ideas than toy's support .
    :mrgreen: But just think about it ... :mrgreen:
