Yup, all getting very hot now however, last week we did the Hatta to Kalba drive, which was a first for me, and it was awesome.

Next week we have 19 cars going to the Track evening at DA which should be fun.

Here's two cars that I have previously owned but sadly have sold on. I miss my Z!







Currently have a old mans car, but bought "she who musty be obeyed" this:

Hello to all the PH-ers out here in the giant sand pits.

Cant help notice the Dubai massive and a few Abu Dhabbiers, where is the Qatar crew?

I've been out here over a year now but have been renting camry, honda city, mazda 6 and generally not been keen to raise my hand as a PHer who drives rentals. But have sinced changed my ways with a new mustang (proudly displays a PH sticker on her haunches for all to enjoy). So now I'm keen to wave a hand and join in the fun, but seems to be a little lonely here in Qatar- any PHers out here?

Dan, welcome to Doha, enjoy the lighter traffic and we have no salek charges here, enjoy and roam free and fast.

Keep an eye out for a light blue (not white) mustang and you will see me.

I think you and I are the Doha crew Adam, havent heard of anybody else and certainly haven't seen any other PH stickers on cars. There are more powder blue Gallardo's with anthracite wheels than PH stickers in Doha!

cheers

Sweaty Sock, we will have to educate the masses, sure an entry into the Arab Run with plenty of PH logos would get some awareness. In a country that is full of fine motors, enthusiastic drivers and with cheap fuel its a PH paradise. Will have to start to spread the word.

What's the Arab run then? Never heard of it before or is it a project in the planning?

"Enthusiastic Drivers" Ha ha, that's one way of putting it. F***ng nutters is another biggrin
