    Hello all,
    Newbie from Ireland,a taxi driver in Dublin with a 2006 Prius[Luxury Pack]with 172,000 kms [107,500 mls approx]:eek:Havn't had one problem and i mean not one with my motor[apart from the odd flat tyre,to be expected]
    I was looking for the turn signal mirrors,I was on to Carson Toyota but it's not a simple transaction to do from outside the US,maybe someone could offer some advice on that one:)Look forward to browsing the PriusChat site.

    Phil.

    Phil,

    Welcome to PriusChat!

    Glad to hear from Ireland, as well. I have enjoyed many trips to Ireland, including many wonderful times with family and new friends I've met along the way.

    Sorry, but I can't help on your question re Carson Toyota.

    As a cabbie, I'll assume you know all about Dublin's streets. Are you familiar with the Lemon Confectionary -- originally on Lemon Street, I believe?

    It's just a little after 11pm local time...and I'm up watching the Olympics on TV.

    I was in Ireland about 2 years ago and spotted only a couple of Prii at that time....and no cabs at all.

    Welcome to the site, we really would love to have a larger international contingent.

    Answer to a priori,Lemon's or Lemons sweet factory as we knew it, was about 5 min drive from where i grew up in a place called Drumcondra[on the main route from city centre to airport]my neighbour worked there...HMMM..SWEETS!!

    And Cheers EFUSCO,mirrors a lot cheaper than Carson and a lot less hassle as they ship intl.
