Frederic Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 I noticed a very nice Toyota Chaser Tourer passing me by a few days back, Since he had a "Classic" license plate, i suspect it was a X90 5th generation model. The car pulled like a rocket on Al Qudra and i was amazed to see in which condition it was. Anyone has seen these before here in UAE ? Before that day i've never seen one here. I am not sure if it was a LHD or RHD (even allowed as Classic car here ?) 1 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."

desertdude Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Dunno about now but earlier if you went to the RHD used car market you could see a lot of such JDM rarities over there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 I’ve seen a couple of RHD AE86 here on classic plates. The full on Euro version, not the Levin with the pop up headlights. That’s one thing I love about UAE, you never know what crazy stuff you will see on the roads.

shadow79 Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 Lately they are allowing rhd cars with classic plates but so far I have only seen Dubai classic rhd's... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertdude Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 Shj does it do. Have a buddy who has his RHD 1940's Land Rover registered in Shj with Classic plates. In fact Shj has been doing Classics for a while now and surprisingly it's much better than Dubai which has very strict criteria and rules for Classic like you can only drive a certain number of kms a year. It doesn't care how old the car is it has to be made before a certain date. Your car could be X many years old but if it was made after that date it will never be considered a classic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
