4WD ?
 

Hello,


I am moving to Dubai soon and was also looking at which car to buy.
I was looking for a good size car to fit the family that is not necessarily a four wheel drive.
My questions are...
Is driving a four wheel drive on sand dunes so much fun that everyone needs to own one?, or do you really need one just for just getting around?
I admit when I was there for interview I did not see a great deal of Dubai, but why does everyone seem to need a 4WD?

Thanks for the replies

4WD = Safety and Protection from the maniacs . Desert not required !

Epiphone,

I was asked why I bought a 4wd when I joined, my honest answer was that " it was that I couldn't buy a tank for self protection!":eek::E

Admittedly the roads have calmed down a bit since I joined, but the saying that the bigger the better still applies to motors in Dubai!

pm me if you want a 2011 Nissan Murano, only 10.000km. warranty, leather...etc etc

PS: avoid american cars. they dont get along very well with the heat. japanese brands very popular here 'cos they are very reliable.

Landrover Defender.
 

Evening ryan, reference the Defender. Would love a 110, but would be happy with a 90. Not bothered about the colour. Anything between 1999-2006 would be great. Looking for a wagon we can keep and tinker with for the foreseeable future.

Have spoken with AAA garage and Al Tayer, but no luck. Local forums have also produced nothing. The hunt continues.

I saw a couple of Armoured Personnel Carriers on European Ebay the other day, only 4000 EUR. Suggested it to the wife (which actually got her support!!) Would love to cruise around blocking Landcruisers.

The thing is that over here its the best to get Japanese cars as mentioned above. What is the range of cars (companies) you are thinking of ? and whats ur budget? i am not a dealer or anything but iam interested in cars lol
