This thread is useless without pictures.

Souq.com is always hilarious in the Q&A section. Especially the various ways people come up to post their phone numbers.

P.S. That Yahoo thing crashed my IE7 too.

Anyone remember the French(?) woman who got the world's first face transplant because her dog bit it off while she was passed out drunk on her bed?

That is changing gradually in good ol' US of A.

Your family is probably the only one which does that.

If you saw a flash, your car will be taken for a week. I think the fine is now also Dhs 1500, but I've never heard of anyone ever getting black points.

The fine is 500AED This link for the police website states the information and the points info. It doesn't mention anything about the car being taken for 1 week either. http://www.dubaipolice.gov.ae/dp/english/e_services.jsp?Page=A26&Id=11137&num2=INF&num=INF&mainlayid=196&ItmTy...

It's an Audi.

If a garage claims experience on an 850, I'd think the first question to ask them is where are the batteries. The thing has two in the trunk.

They have your credit card number.

if your going slow.. then why not drive on the 2nd or 3rd track?

There are morons who tailgate even at 140 kph, so that is a non-issue.

Here? No.

But it's Orlando Bloom!

I saw only Arab (Lebanese?) guys wear pink t-shirts. Almost all of them were tight t-shirts. Some of them were skinny guys. I doubt they were gay, but they've been reading the wrong magazines.

A New Beetle doesn't need to be pink to be shocking.

I visited AD in the early 90s.

Wa? All Dubai channels switched to satellite transmission now (except maybe for Dubai sports channel). I know because nothing comes on those fancy car TVs now except for Sharjah TV.

Yep. Please invite more Western tourists. Including professional American bank robbers. Imagine that they stole Audi A8s as well as escaped in 9 pm traffic.

142k for this car still? its already outdated and the IS350 has replaced it in N.America for pretty much the same price i think. id buy the is300 only if i was buying used. No dude, the IS300 here is the same shape as the American IS350, but with a smaller V6. The old IS300 had an inline-6 and was ...

That is why you buy an Infiniti G35 for the same price, hehe.

cheer up , you'll get used to it 8) Well I've been here 5 years and I still haven't got used to the sporadic site blocking sprees they take up every now and then. Most of their choices and general reasoning seems pretty nonsensical to me, which is why it does become rather monotonous and irritating...

Many groups neglect this, the business is more important than their relationships...One of the best ways to be worked out is for the individuals to be allowed to state what they are feeling and what they want...... :wink: If the business is ignored, then the money stops coming in.
