  4. I remember playing with this car in Gran Turismo. Once you had one of these no one was able to beat you. Packing 2 (that's right 2) 1,590cc engines. Each four-cylinder engine is able to deliver 450PS. It was built to function at its best for about 10 minutes. Below you can checkout a very detailed article about the car. http://www.speedhunters.com/2014/04/twin-engined-monster-suzuki-escudo/

  6. Due to the shortage of time last week, there was some unfinished business on the dunes south of the Solar Panels. So lets attempt to reach there this time starting from Al Faqa. The area provides long range dunes that offer a perfect playground to ramp up the pace a bit and stretch the legs of both car and driver. We will explore the area, and alternate between side sloping, ridge crossing, and enjoy whatever this area has to offer. This drive is for Fewbie and above level only. When: 24 January 2020, Friday Meeting time: 06:45 AM, the convoy will move sharply at 07:00 AM Where: Al Faqa GPS Coordinate: https://goo.gl/maps/dt57TRJ3ak4SrCkX8 Level of drive: Fewbie and above Type of Car: Any proper 4x4 with front and back tow hooks and 10 inches of ground clearance. Plan: Drive and enjoy until about 12 PM, with some small breaks in between to have breakfast and snacks. What to bring along: Some snacks, plenty of water - whatever you like with little extra to share, smiles, stories, enthusiasm and willingness to learn. Approximate finish time: 12 PM Please RSVP the below calendar event

  10. Posting images in the gallery but this line-up deserves to be on the drive thread too. Amazing turnout and wonderful drive. @Wrangeld your trip reports are awesome and like Rahim Bhai said, they paint the perfect picture for those who missed the drive.

  13. Any idea about the root cause of the sagging ? If the car has a sunroof you might have had water leakage ? If the headliner is dry and in good shape, you should be apply to apply some sealant silicon (like TEC7) on the headliner and gently push it back in place. If it got wet, then i would definitely advise to get it replaced or you might start getting mold and funky smells.
