Having lived in Europe for about 6 years, I can tell you from personal experience that you don't really "need" a car. Public transportation is really good and traffic respects bicycles (for the most part). I never lived in England, though, so I could be wrong, but anwhere on the continent, a car is not a necessity like it is here. And they are way expensive compared to here. Ask Seti20 (Bas) about that.

I envy you, young man. I wish I could go do it over again.....

I know it wasn't long term but I stayed in Weisswasser, Germany for a month and all I needed was a bicycle with the one exception being a car/van for groceries. I could have used public transit for my visit to Dresden but I rode with a missionary instead (had stayed with them). It costs lots of money to own a car there. I went to Poland for a day or two while there and boy, You thought it was bad before the Euro for them... $0.15 for a 20oz. Coke now.

I actually went over there alone at 18 yrs of age. I had paid the money to go on the trip with a group of 30 guys and gals from my old church to renovate an old school to become a church BUT 9/11 happened and they all rescheduled it for in the winter time the next year. I couldn't do that because I would be in college and there was no way I was going to miss out on a month of class and make it. Since the money was non-refundable, I left on schedule, 9/11 or not. Was a blast. First time over the Atlantic Ocean (been to other countries). Too bad I couldn't bring any German CRX's over

Hope you find another nice CRX
