    Range Rovers once again living up to their legendary reliability. That car can't be older than 7 years or so.

    Wow. Even the junkyard cars in Qatar are worth more than my car.

    I would prefer that circa '79 Mazda 929 lurking behind the burnt out Bentley. With the Bentley engine in it... Consequently, I find myself wondering how many engine swaps began with spotting a fortuitous pairing such as this in a junkyard somewhere?

    Some of these are in decent shape. Is this what happens in Qatar when your ashtray is full?

    Thanks for posting, Rashid. You are my new Qatar Hero.

    It must take a lot of hoonage to wreck an H1.

    @VeeArrrSix: It doesn't even look wrecked. It just has flat tires. All you have to do is replace the tires, put the Bentley engine in it, and then race it at Lemons.

    There's a reason some of these vehicles still appear to be in good shape. They are clearly part of Qatar's "Riyal For Rides" economic stimulus package.

    Doesn't take much to send your ride too the knackers in Doha. Quite a shame. I hope the engine from that Bentley can find a good home. Somehow this affects me more than dropping by the animal shelter.

    The desert breeds strange automotive concoctions, apparently. That lifted Caddy would be perfectly at home in Glamis.

    One just has to wonder exactly what that Camaro had under the hood at one point. I know there are some crazy cars that get built here and shipped over there.

    Anyone want to guess? I'm thinking a Pro-Stock style mill, couple of Dominators on a 2' tall high rise.

    In a few years, I plan on making a trip to Dubai to pick up a few Enzos Veyrons, Maybachs, RRs, and an assortment lesser super and luxury cars on the cheap. Might pick up a few skyscrapers and artificial island developments too. Provided of course that the dollar is worth more than a nickel at that point...

    I used the "ask seller a question" button on e-bay to find out if there was any maintenance due on the Bentley, but all I got back was a response laden with challenges to "join him in the squared circle" and that if I asked him another question about the Bentley he'd "jump 25 feet in the air off the top rope, and drive his elbow through my skull", and that he would hammer me with his 24-inch pythons... whatever that means.

    Funny this should come up. Just last night, me and my friends were playing an old WWE game that allows custom characters. Naturally we made ourselves to beat the crap out of each other.
