Matey, at the end of the day its not about who is better than who. But as you state, you are young, heck so am I - relatively. When you have had close mates die infront of you as a result of motorsports you will understand the real dangers and where I am coming from. Til then, happy motoring.

Noham, Getting better but what you need to consider is whether you will be able to maintain the standard of living as back home. For instance, if you currently live close to your work and the rent is decent you need to figure out whether it's feasible to be in the same position as here. Without know...

Unfortunately my last name is not Jackson.

That's not the most convenient place to be Cons. You will be relying on pretty much taxis to get you around. The only good things are that 'Zook' is just a walk down the road, Boat Quay and Clarke Quay are within 'walking' distance so night time entertainment will be taken care of. Suggestions on wh...

Depends where you will work and how far you want to live from your work matey.

Vehicle allowance should at the minimum cover monthly rental + running costs for a medium sized car - 2400dhs/month (~$8k/year)

In that case look at getting the housing allowance increased to a minimum of 30k. Vehicle should be just enough to get you by.

Depression is crap... I gave in to it once and it nearly killed me. Never again.

Nothing personal mate, but no bad drivers? Good one.

Actually Sal, Hertz and Thrifty are amongst the medium to higher priced rental places. Dollar rent-a-car and United car rental are two of the 'cheaper' places. You can get an Accord Euro for 2200-2400/Month.

Which is what makes Keith's comment witty. If its only for sara, then PM her.

K, I'm still happy to take you out for some advance or defensive driver training.

Used, yes. New, stretching the budget.

J, I owned and worked on scoobies for 6 years... they're not built to last.

Sal, I think you are (wrongly) presuming I have never been involved with SEATs?

Okay, The Singapore Tourism Authority is currently running some promotions so when u get to the airport look for the "Uniquely Singapore" tourist counters and u can sign up for a free half day tour of Singapore and this will give u a good run down of the "city". Singapore is not ...

Porka is alright, although I wouldn't class it as an "exotic" car and not exactly the most 'reliable' everyday car.

Funny how the parking spaces along the streets become complately bare once a parking meter is implemented. Take the slip road adjacent to SZR where House of Cars, Quartermile Cars, etc are, this strip used to be hell to find parking when it was free. Now that municipality has put parking meters ther...

Good luck with the sale and with the prospective buyer trying to register it here.

jag, lucky thing that jabra make a bluetooth handsfree that looks like a radar detector

One that blurs the numbers?

Either way, anything that attempts to circumvent the law would be deemed illegal.

ok if i puted for ml63 amg cam and hyders maybe it will be stronger then the porshcayaean I don't think you're writing in short form or abbreviations... crypic I could buy :wink: Anyways, even with cams and headers the ML63 AMG would not come close to a Cayenne Turbo. I'll third the point - althoug...

Even though I am a Porka fan through and through I would still pick a patrol or landcruiser over a cayenne to dune bash. The Cayenne is like an "idiot proof" off roader. Press some buttons and put your foot on the accelerator - where's the fun in that. Dune bashing is an art form in itself...

have u ever heard the noise coming out from Gemballa Bi turbo beast?

it is still in my mind !

Agreed, brain bleeding rumble at its best.

Gemballa rulez for body kits i prefer TechArt over Gemballa but to each its own, the above pictures posted are TechArt. Ditto for the Cayenne body kit - TechArt is horn. Performance, look no further than http://www.evolve.ae/forum/garage.php?mode=view_gallery_item&type=garage_mod&image_id=38

Hey soupie, nah mate. I've hammered both and the Cayenne Turbo still leaves the competition 'lagging'. If we're talking luxury, ride and comfort, the AMG hands down winner.

Generally speaking: Ideal circuit (long course) racing - 5 speed sequential manual transmission. Ideal circuit (short course) racing - 6 speed sequential manual transmission. Ideal rally racing - 6 speed sequential manual transmission. Ideal drag racing - 4 speed sequential auto transmission.
