US OEM American cars are becoming more and more popular in Poland, but also in Europe. Most often, however, used cars are imported, which - naturally - need to be serviced and repaired from time to time.
The problem is that authorized repairers that repair cars overseas are like medicine. So only a few companies import parts for cars from the USA and it is not easy to get them.
However, there are quite a few substitutes on the market, but it is worth remembering that the price is not always the result of only the "stamp", i.e. the brand. Often, quality drops along with it, so it is better to consider whether the apparent savings on the purchase of a cheaper part will not end with another visit to the workshop, a break in the possibility of using the car and - unfortunately - other unplanned expenses that could have been avoided.
But if you want a car
Owning a car these days is not unusual. However, if you want a car that is rare in Europe, there are a few things you need to think about. Is it possible to import parts, as is their availability in Europe? Is it possible to find a mechanic to take care of our car without major problems. Parts for cars from the USA are also expensive. You have to reckon with the fact that these cars have large engine capacity, and thus burn more. Additionally, getting the parts takes a lot of time, so in case of a breakdown your car will stop rather than drive. These cars are unusual because they mostly have an automatic transmission. Some may think that driving is more difficult, but no, it is much simpler. There is no secret that American cars are very charming and despite the poorer availability of spare parts, they are more and more often bought by those interested.
