Hallo from Dubai

Hi this is Heli from Dubai, just bought a Spider 1800 Model 1977, love it it's a stunning little fun car.

Curious to know if it is a European or a US version.
The US version was burdened with smog compliance. I'd bet the European was not and more powerful.

Hi Heli,
welcome and congratulations to your purchase!

The people from UAE must be Spider fans because the worldwide Spider Register already got 9 cars in your country, see here:

Is your 1977 Spider ("CS1") already listed? It would be great to get some more informations (i.e. history) and an actual pic of the car!
The VIN would be useful too, thanks in advance!

Happy motoring!

Hi Ralf,

yes it's listed VIN: 124CS10121094, I started now to bring him to original, some of the meters like water temperature and clock are not correct or not working, got originals already they are on the way from Italy.

I love this little car, it is so much fun to drive.

best regards from Dubai
Heli

It's a us version, have the issue with the speedometer in Miles/h as we use km/h in Dubai, installed a gps device (removable) that I am not over-speeding as the little guy is pretty fast.
