Arab Extravaganza

Recommended Posts

Mate of mine used to live in Oman. People would rent a humer for $100 and go wadi bashing in it. Bring back with virtually no suspension. Responsibility was on the hire company. Not like that now.

 

Flew over for new years (millennium). Off the plane, round to somebody’s house and off to the dunes. Unfortunately I didn’t have a drivers license so couldn’t have a go.

 

Nothing quite like blasting round dunes in a stripped down 4x4.

My mate did one about a month ago, and as soon as he left the garage the radio knob fell off, then a few hours later the indicator failed to work. When he took it back, the drive home made him lose all electrics, then they all restarted again 10 seconds later. But he said it was one amazing car. SOoooooo, im tempted, however i want to wangle a test drive in a Sagaris

How do you swindle a test drive? :)

He just called them and arrange a test drive in a T350 and they let him have it for 24 hours, he had to leave his RX8 there obviously and pay a £600 deposit in case anything happens. I will call them tomorrow and let you know what they say

 

I'd be well up for that :teeth:

We have one dealer in Ireland who specialises in exotics. You tell him what you want. He gets it. Think he buys people out of the waiting lists. Never seen him with a TVR. Ferrari's, Aston's, Bentely's but no TVR. Another dealer sells Astons and SLR's. Doubt I would ever be allowed a test drive without telling a few fibs.
