Did you buy the red z1

[Paracetamol]

I bought one about 4 years ago in Dubai and recomissioned it. I then shipped it to the UK as it didn't have AC.

I decided to sell it and put it in auction. got a great result..the car was a very clean one. I managed to find an unobtainium part after 2 years of searching and that fixed the door issue that the car had when I bought it.

Is it just me or do cars in Dubai look hideously overpriced?

[Paracetamol]

not really...only if you caluclatule their price in GBP..the exchange rate is very sucky right now

So, can the previous model of GCC Exige be registered in Europe if it’s older than 10 years?

To the guy after a 997.2, I reckon these are the best value 911 out here right now. Mostly PDK with the buttons on the wheel but a swap to the steering wheel with flaps can sort that.

That'll be me.

I have RMS/IMS/borescore internet fear so it's deffo the .2 I want.

Negotiations still ongoing at the ranch... watch this space...

I've also found a viable option for a car seat in a 981 Cayman, that can be used as the stick to get me back on track to the 4 seater if necessary

That is awesome. On a similr note, walter wolf’s street legal 935 which knocks the recent factort effort into a cocked hat
