And as I said, ideal test conditions. Everyone gets lower mileage usually.

The prices in the original post seem severely optimistic.

Good stuff. Price? And does it do 0-100 kph? I am assuming it can do skidpad...

It is something that I'd need, or a guy regularly dishes out dough at the Autodrome. Pricey though. Can't justify it in my budget for now.

What you're supposed to do is cancel the Abu Dhabi reg and get temporary "import" plates from them at a separate cost, then drive to Dubai and register in Dubai. Midland Cars in Karama, Dubai (look 'em up) does it all, for Dhs 200. I used them to register a plateless car I bought in Sharja...

People that are incredably ignorant and have the manners of a pig generally need actions that teach them a lesson. Its thinking like this that start wars. Likesage said, this isn't the UK or the US. You can get into some serious shit for doing something like that. Actually, you can get away with su...

I thought you had a Mazda, you Mazdaboy!

It costs Dhs 71,000. Straight from the horse's mouth.

I can blur my vision my contracting muscles in my eyes (cornea?) But a doctor told me it's a normal but rare condition.

Blurring the vision isn't freaky. I can do that. Just "lose" focus, and you're there. Fun while driving.

There are a number of guys driving 182's around Dubai, but would not like to meet an SUV or 4x4 in one!

I was going to condemn you for vaguely reccomending an SUV, but then I noticed you have a Civic.

Be glad you haven't come across any.

I would slam my break too if some idots driving behind me and flashing me with it's lights when the traffic is busy, and I am on the fast lane doing the road limits (or a bit above) and some idots driving like the fomula one, flashing the lights and beeping me.

I'll send you a sped-up video of my speedo too. Also search for the video where a guy on an electric stand-up scooter outruns a Corvette.

Shouldn't be too hard.

Off Road Cars seems like a big outfit, but I'd still get the car checked.

I know I can't register a rhd vehicle but surely therre'snothing to prevent me keeping UK plates and using it? UK plates? No. Unless you want to put it in your window as a display piece. Though cars do come from Saudi Arabia, Oman and what not. And RHD cars converted to LHD also do not get register...

I'm not sure how long I'll be staying and might only be there for a year or less...

Well, you'd be the first to do it, so no one really knows. I haven't seen any plates any further than from Middle East countries.

No it doesnt have to. I have an amazing friend who is a female and we got along so well, spent alot of time with each other .. and just had a great time. Then this guy we both knew wanted to date her and for some reason came over to me and asked if it was cool with me .. i was very happy for them a...

But your bikes are right-hand-drive, right?

Thank you Dr Webster.

I am not a clinical doctor.

Save 15,000 more for future repairs.

We have a company here now that originated in the Uk I believe, called Dentmaster. Think it is along similar lines.

Dentmaster pushes out small dents in which the paint isn't damaged or scratched. This dude's paint has come off.

Wow. Similar to my story. I was in Atlanta.

The police don't always side with the foreign party sadly.
