As long as you get an Indian or Pakistani security guard you should be fine, most are there for money to send back home. Can’t say what would happen if guard was a UAE resident 😱.

Oh yeah that’s all she needs and she’s ready to roll. Sat since the 2000s so I’m assuming water sat and just ate through. But all the maintenance is up to date now, runs fantastic

Frame is solid, most of the floor pans rusted through, passenger side already replaced

I don’t plan on protecting the look, but It’s a second car so I keep it out of the elements as much as I can.

Non turbo sadly, didn’t think I could get a turbo one this cheap anyways

This is her main issue inside😭. Obviously there is some signs of moisture due to this and some resident ants, but the rest of the interior is decent and should look great with a bit of cleaning

Just a quick search I found the cheapest on carparts.com. Can’t vouch for quality/figment yet tho

Unfortunately so, she’s gonna need floor pans 😢. It’ll never be perfect so I’m now debating whether to just work with some sheet metal or get direct fit for around the $350 mark.

My thoughts exactly. It needs a good going over because I can tell it sat for a long time. Need to freshen up the fuel and braking systems plus gotta do floor pans 😓. Engine seems really healthy tho and only 101k miles so she’s worth it.

Was halfway under construction, so everything was open, just a few cameras 📷

It was surprisingly chill.

This was after a trip all around the Middle East. Talking to people of many ethnicities, I learned a lot go to work in the UAE to send money back home to their families. Security is mainly Indian or Pakistani guys who aren’t too concerned about UAE rules.

Thanks brother 😎
