Hello from Eastern Poland
« on: November 14, 2013, 05:17:19 pm »
Didn't know about this place until today, have always been on Benzworld.     I have a U1300L which I drove all the way to Eastern Poland when we moved here 3 years ago.  I also have a Pinzgauer 710K and the wife drives a UAZ 469b        Always liked the Unimog since I first sat in one on an island in the South Atlantic in 1982   I don,t like the seating position of the older Mogs, my first choice would have been a U417 but a U1300L had to be my starter.   Hope I can be of help to somebody sometime, had mine 4 years and had to deal with a few problems (changing air valves etc).

Hi Dreadnought, and welcome to the forum. It's good to see you here.

Funnily enough I was just talking about you with another member here. For some reason I had got you and him partly muddled up - I met him at an off road day several years ago and from talking to both of you a fair bit on Benzworld thought he was the one who had moved to Poland... We both concluded that it was you I was thinking of, and now here you are!

How's life treating you over in Poland? Settling in well now you've been over there a while?

Hi Dreadnought, welcome to Unimog Club UK :)

sounds like a great selection of vehicles youve got there. quite like the pinzgauers, although anything designed by steyrs got something good about it  :D
i dont know much about the Uaz, what are they like off road?

Cheers, Brian
