that has to be too wide to be road legal

right?

FTA: "The replica also features a registration plate, making it legal to be driven on the streets of Abu Dhabi."

I think if you're the Rainbow Sheik you can decide what is street legal or not. Anybody foolish enough to pull this guy or his staff over is not going to have a long career.

Road legal huh? I wanna know what roads we’re talking about here. Last I checked, you can’t just toss some brake lights on a monster truck and call it road legal.

The only thing that makes it road legal is the license plate.

Basically someone paid a ton of money to make it “street legal”

It’s street legal by technicality but only in Abu Dhabi

Huh, do you have any idea how old this vehicle is? Because it seems to be way older then I realised.
