Anyone ever hear from 'Miguel'?

the guy who made a cross-country trip in his w123 wagon with a trailer? i know he crashed it somewhere in south america when he decided to drive south.

he had a pretty cool pictorial diary of the members he met along the way (including me!)

I'm alive and kicking! Been awfully busy with the Dubai Motor Show and getting settled —once again— in the UAE. I should really update the blog!

If anybody is on Facebook, feel free to add me:
https://www.facebook.com/71442529K

This European Life's Facebook Page has been reduced to a cool car blog; not sure when the next big road adventure will be. Maybe I'll take short trips to Oman, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Jordan...

Miss having a W123 wagon greatly. There's one in the local junkyard, not sure if it can be rescued.
