'For repair'.It would cost the asking price to print out the parts list.
First of all, let me declare my unconditional love for G-Wagens. I drive one so there. My wife knows I have no taste except for women.
But this
https://dubai.dubizzle.com/motors/used-cars/merced...
this leaves even me in a limbo.
3,000 km. Practically new, as one can see from the photos. Has it been stored underground at a date farm? Was it specced by Emiratis playing Dungeons & Dragons and throwing dice before selecting colours/options?
Forget about the 1 year warranty, we all know it's bulls
t.
But for some reason, I believe this is a future classic. I wouldn't change a thing. Even the baffling pistacchio gelato interior or whatever that colour is.
I have a massive crush for this.

Cant say much for the colour, but i bought a G class from this same dealer just over a year ago and no complaints. (Car registration renewal was today and passed with flying colours).
to be fair, I've visited them not long ago and they had a couple of good cars, priced reasonably and they were happy for me to look at everything on them. I'd buy from them. Hi! I have found this ad on dubizzle. Have a look! http://tnydu.biz/DOt2Vm

That's great value. There was a red V6 GT on the autodrome with me a few weeks back that sounded amazing.
i don't know where to start with that porsche. all kinds of horrible.
anyone here got experience with the l322 rangerover? i am still looking for an lr3 but the price of these has plummeted and its hard to ignore how much car you get for the money.

Wrong link? What I see is a stty 90's Opel Astra up for 10k AED. It looks like my move to AUH is formalised so I'm oficially car-hunting.
I had a chat with Lotus, it seems that they are selling off their 2015 stock...sort of... AED375K and they pay the 20% deposit for you so, essentially, you pay 300k.
That's 66 and a half thousand GB Pounds, for a 2015 Evora S.
Somehow they guy seems to think I'm going to bite his hand off.

The 400s are massively overpriced! Pretty-much 100K GBP!
Why are people buying them?
He offered me a deal on the 'S' with no downpayment, AED4900 per month for 2 years, then give it back and walk away.
It feels like I'm out of the kitty-litter pit, and into the paradise beach pit. Oh God, beer after work is going to be sooooo nice.

I meant the 400s aren't old stock, prices on them are very silly if you're using post brexit sterling.
They're not selling afaik which is kinda the point. I'm not even sure al futtain even maintain a lotus parts desk anymore, I rang last week to be told it's closed (used to be in the Volvo showroom opposite) then got fobbed off with a mobile no that no one ever answers.
Poor? yes, unexpected? Give over it's Dubai. Just concerns me what their strategy is as, from the enthusiasts POV at least, it seems paper thin.
