i'm told the new landcruisers have remote starting and remote setting of the aircon!

there's a few petrolheads at work, all of whom are laughing at my deliberations.
But at least a 3 month wait for them...already tried them!

There is a Karmann Ghia just down the road form me for sale.
any pics?

seen one on dubizzle but it looked crap. it's under consideration if it's had a lot of work done.

not seen anything as exotic as a veryon yet. a few ferraris and a viper have been about the best on-road spots so far.

Shirt, if you are ever in Mall of the Emirates, pop out to the valet place between Harvey Nics and Debenhams, some tasty metal out there, especially at the weekend.

'Lols' at posts above.

2009 is the last year of the s197 mustang like mine, don't like the new shape.

Shelby gt500 to give it its full name is the 5.4l supercharged mustang.

You'll still have a year left on the al tayer warranty, soon as that finishes go see my man who runs the Dubai mustang club, pulley change on the blower and a tune, genuine 600+ bhp

Fantastic cars. Becoming dead cheap now as well. Would love to have one of those in the UK but I wonder how it copes with the heat over here.

I'd hate to source a new front or rear clamshell for one everytime a loon in a Landcruiser fails to notice that you exist too!

Perhaps the less said the better:



Both taken outside the Bikers Cafe (near Mercato Mall). Sorry for the rubbish quality, camera phone.
