Asterix said: Seen it around the Springs once in a while - a pic I took a while back.  This SV was parked outside my apartment last week - sounded evil when it drove off.  Its a 73 RS Replica. I bought is about a year ago. Underneath is a 83 SC with a 3.0 Litre lump in it. Had around 12,000 buck spent on the car in Canada before it came in, engine rebuild, new clutch, oil system, new aircon unit etc which can handle the heat pretty easy. Just bought a twin exhaust for it from FOX Exhausts and got rid of that damn backbox which looked like a nappy. Always up for a drive if anyone is going for a drive one eve or weekend. Cheers.

Thought it about time I put it down on a forum as my wife and mates are fed up with my rants about cars you know. Re the 73RS I never actually put it up for sale. Its not really the car for Dubizzle you know. If someone who loves Porkers comes up to me and gives me a decent offer at the right time I might sell you know. I had a 2008 Carrera S with clubsport kit, manual..which I loved. However, when I found the Vanquish I thought it better to sell the new one as there are so many about and it went in a day. (And can always get another in the future) Where as with the old porker is a nightmare going through all the finding a clean one, importing, registration, documentation. The Vanquish was such a steal at the price I got it for and its only done 12,000 kms ..thats like 7,000 miles. Unreal. Now I know the meaning of the word mint. I should really sell it to Europe but I cant bear letting it go you know. Just had a few things done on it and bought the extended warranty. Its begging to be thrashed as its sad in a showroom all its life. Pick her up tomorrow from Al Naboodah Service Centre. Ooooooo I could cruch a graape. : ) Hope to see you the PH lot from Dubai soon. Perhaps at the Motoring Middle East car meet this weekend. Friday from 4pm oputside Hard Rockcafe in Festival city. (Which is on facebook)

Eccentric M said: Yup, seen the 911 "Carrera" near Dubai Trade Center during Dubai Motorshow 2011.  Hey all, just decided today that I am going to sell my 73RS Replica (Pictured here). Far too much to list here, suffice to say over 12,000USD was spent on this car recently and all work was done in Canada before shipped. New clutch,oil feeders, new air con unit, all seals, bushes you name it, its all been done. I even got the paintwork touched up and any signs of rust sorted. I love it, but need room in the garage for the Vanquish this summer. Will sell with the number plate which is worth 10,000AED all day long. Personal Message me if you are interested. Cheers.

Impspeed - Nice! Asterix - I saw that Vector M12 once on a trailer a few months back on Al Khail Road, but it was on the other side of the road I was  I managed to see a Bugatti Veyron (Red and Chrome/Grey) at Umm Suqeim Road yesterday near Max Garage. I was at the lights though and it made a turn and drove off. I also saw these as well.
