Thanks Dave for the first hand information and history on these interesting cars ....

These 7 cars were presented to his new wife, at their wedding in Abu Dhabi, in 1983 (which my mother and I sort of gate-crashed!). Each car has 3 mobile phones, 3 M16 automatic rifles in the boot and everything inside each car, was the same colour as the outside (that included the M16's)!!! His new wife at the time was also reported to be unable to drive! Impressive none the less...
