Default When did the Prius get introduced to Europe/Germany?

I'm being transfered to Germany and I'm wondering how easy it's going to be to get my US '03 Prius serviced over there?

Also, anybody know if the '03's nav system has a compatible European DVD?

Thanks,

Peter

I think that the Toyota Yaris is being sold in Europe. The Toyota Yaris is the European version of the Toyota Prius if I recall correctly.

Check with the YahooGroup, Prius-Europe. Yes, they have the NHW11 Prius in Europe and Germany but something are different.

As a suggestion, you probably want to suffer a 'tank leak' and get a replacement . . . without a bladder <grins>. Then no doubt the rear drum brakes will need to be replaced . . . with rear disk brakes! <Grins> Finally, make sure you attend a Prius rally and use your windshield wipers to clean off the road dust. <GRINS>

Perhaps you can get your 2003 rear seat replaced with the folding version also.
