Im moving to Dubai soon, i have a Full Irish Driving Licence, will this do. also i need to buy a cheap car, anyone have any info for me?

you will probably have to wait till you get here for the cheap car. Pick up an auto trader or newspaper or ask a cab to take you to Al Awir which is an area with many used cars.

As for the driver license, I believe you will have to get that authenticated by the embassy here and then its either a matter of immediate issuing of a uae license or you may have to do a test.

Cheers,

I think Smartd made an error , its "Al Khor".. if u say aweer the cabbie will take u to ................... aweer

tisk tisk tisk.... an error.... i dont think so

emphasis on "Al" in front of "Awir".

Obviously you would need to mention Al Awir for used cars.

The Sharjah car market is much bigger and much more affordable, don't listen to anyone else! Prices their are over inflated!! (dubai that is)

Both are good places to go to for cheap cars but sweetie i dont think you would like to go around dubai with a cheap car do you? Sort out your driving license and after that you enjoy the sight of alot of fancy but not so expensive cars then you can decide. Aslo, depends on how much budjet ur coming with.

exactly you can get a descent mustang for only 5k

5K for a stang? what kind of an old shit box would that be? unless it's a foxbody which is simply ing .
the previous gen stangs go for the mid to high teens, if the '05 stangs picks up by the end of the year it'll ensure that prices of all the previous models drop accordingly.

Then again, not many chicks drive muscle cars......

sorry i mean thats USD5k late '90s RED good body and engine's in mint cont. it just need alil work on its interior... but is a good buy

Yank tanks do not hold their value very well.

Get ya self a decent Jap motor with good a/c!

Please, please, do not buy yourself a Nissan Sunny!

Yank tanks own your children!!!!
then again, i don't much fancy the idea of a chick behind a v8, you know what? get a sunny!

dude just think of it this way ,...


totally hot Chick lets say Sylvia Saint type,... in black leather top and skirt in an 95 RED Convertible Stang, pulled over and asked you if you wanna ride ... what would you do?


HOT Chick on a V8 ROCK! dude

I don't like the idea of sharing the road with a women behind the wheel of an overpowered rocket-like tank of a car.

And if you think a chick is just gonna pull up in a car and ask you to ride with her.....WTF!!!
Im not even gonna get started on that one.

Hot chick =/= Mustang

Sorry, but thats pure yank crap, today she drives a BMW, Audi TT or Merc!

Forget the yank shit, thats from the 60's days.

You sir, may gobble on my knob!
The 05 Stang is lethal, not all muscle cars are from the cold war era...i'd rather have a chick in a beefed up chev than a prissy BMW....

Excuse me whilst i get my magnifying glass out to find it first! hahahahahahahahahahahhaa

Yes, I agree, the new Mustang is nice. I was seriously considering the new Vette. It was not badly priced at dhs.195K. 6.0l V8 400bhp.

I dont get it, whats that magnifying glass thing about?
are you implying that people who drive muscle cars suffer from some tiny wang complex?

You said

Get it?

HILARIOUS!!!!

well FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK me, the penny finally drops! hahahahahahahahaha

Morning Glory!

you see the "Knob gobbling" wasn't the point of my post, i assumed that you shrugged that off and were talking about the car! seeing as ther is a stigma bout men and their engine displacment!
porsches still hold the number one spot for tiny wanged drivers.

So, going by your throary then, women who drive big powerfull cars have small T I Ts?

I love my cars, but just cos I drive a nice sports car, does not mean a weenie!

the fcuk is a throary? did you mean theory?

Don't you drive a pug?

Oh yes, and BURN!!!

No, I am now actually in Dubai, and no, I do not drive a Pug, but I did.

It's a piece of Jap metal.

Sorry, before was a typo, typing to fast my own good. I am actually an expat westerner, who lived in HK!

BURN! Oh my, cheers squirt.

oh yeah... you got me good there......

and, i know it's not something to boast about, but i also think i am the oldest on the forum!

you iz a geezer then?

yup, OLD GEEZER, wanna buy a car me old mukka? hahahahahaahahahaha
