Stories from the Road | June 12th Update | Page 8

Ok, so I'm out in Qatar and the number of nice motors out here is just outstanding! I've never seen so many Porsche Cayene's before! RR Sports, Merc MLs, S-class and a few other treats.

This Veyron was parked up outside the Rolls Royce dealer the other day. The owner was looking at buying a purple Ghost that you can just about make out in the picture.

This was parked up outside a Ferrari and Maserrati dealer (which is opposite the Rolls Royce dealer). Very nice new MC Stradale. On the way back the other way after about an hour, the car was running, no one inside it. They were talking over the delivery I guess, but there is no teft here. Can you imagine leaving a car like that running with the keys in it in the UK? It'd be gone!

Not as good as them, but I saw a 12 plate yesterday!

And Arran, I work out of Ras Laffan half of the time :wink:
 
I like your 200 in the background, I bet it took you ages to get the angle right so the car was in shot too! Lol!
 
These are from Qatar again,

I've got a video of all the Ferrari's lined up, there was a California, 2 458 Italias and a F430 Scuderia. Then 2 Maserati Quattroportes.
 
I saw an Astra like this earlier, the Vauxhall badge was missing at it leaves that grey surround with 2 holes in the middle, so I guess the owner was just messing around and just wanted to cover up the holes.

Excuse me, but your car is on fire. by Tom Cash, on Flickr

The last one - basically, he was sitting behind me for a good 10 minutes whilst his car seemed to be falling apart. He made no attempts to pull over and sort it out.... Weird...
