Real Estate / Banks in Poland selling fewer mortgages in 2011, down 49% [285]
I live 35 KM outside of Warszawa i have to drive 10 km in any direction through at least 5 villiages to get to an ATM machine, if i count up the population there which are mainly old people there would be around 5000 in surrounding villages without access to a bank this is one area so take the rest of Poland and the figure is around 40-50%
I believe civil servants were made to have a bank account only a couple of years ago
The figure given by the banks in 70 percent which is much more believable ( these are nbp figures). 40 percent was 10 years ago.

Polsyr
As long as you only want to drive it while you are here then not a problem, if you plan on registering it in Poland it needs to be under 10 years old and you will have to pay import tax on it also.
I Get cars from the States I buy have a family member drive it around for 6 months and ship to the UK where i register it and then pay no import tax because i have owned it and driven it outside of the country for the allowed amount of time

Since it only costs 98 zloty to get that inspection and its very straight forward as well, Unlike the UK why not just pay it, as for the fine i was told it was 300 zloty

Law / Setting up a sole trader business and becoming a resident in Poland - Procedure? [32]
I have a business its located offshore in Delaware I don't work in Poland but live there only, i get all the residency stuff etc. It depends on where you want to trade in or out of the country?
However if setting up a company in Poland expect this to take around 6 weeks, to get everything like VAT and bank accounts sorted, my advice would be to seek the services of a good lawyer who will help you through the process, Just remember one thing though, DO NOT play with the Financial Government in Poland as they can take control of your business

Just take it out the ATM as this works out cheaper, dependent on which bank you use in your home country you will normally get a few points below the central bank exchange rate
