Any Abu Dhabi/Dubai members/RS Owners on here?

[Danith]

My bro is out there at the mo in AD and is selling his 207 GTi THP and looking at RS Clios. Maybe modified 182 or 197/200.

Only thing is, it's a lot different owning one out there I reckon as all parts and knowledge out there is limited. Any members on here out in the Gulf?

Its a little Renault mate... not a complex 1980's group B supercar! apart from the belt changes what else is especially difficult on them?

Yeah I know I don't think Clios are quite up to par with anything special!!

But would you buy one without knowing it's had a proper belt change? I'd be stuck without the availability of 2nd hand parts and advice on here and the garages over there are absolutely useless most of the time. Cars get bought new and run to the ground and scrapped, they don't look after them over there.

Yeah that rings a bell actually. Cheers. I remember him buying it a year or two ago.
