Driving miss crazy

Just back from that Alladin's Cave of automobilia that is Al Awir car souq. Wow. It has been a year or so since I last cruised these crowded forecourts, and the place has become even more impossibly crowded than ever. Once parking was difficult, now it is impossible.

However, though the traffic is worse, the cars are better. More of them. Better condition. Lower prices. If you're into cars, this is definitely worth a afternoon's hot exploration.

Highlights for me were a beautiful old Mercedes convertible in creamy white, perfectly restored, and 427cu Cobra. No LM10s this time, but plenty of other exotica.

I wonder how long before the inevitable happens and the site has to double in size?
