Just wondering if there are any Alfistis around?

Thinking about getting a GTA and needs some advise on owning an Alfa in Dubai.

Yup, you can get GTA's in Dubai. Nice quick car, have to admit. Had a few runs with them in the past. What info you looking for? I believe most important thing in getting an Alfa is the service support. By the way, do you know of any good breakers in Dubai? There are tonnes of amazing cars, I wonde...

Just wondering if anyone has come across good breakers? I'm interested in getting good used performance parts. Like M5, M3 engines, Superchargers, Wheels, racing seats, etc.

HI, I have an Alfa Romeo 155 V6 QUADRIFOGLIO. As an Alfist u know what does it mean. About Alfa in Dubai, they have nice, friendly, and fast service. it's the same as Mercedes (Gargash), but a expensive compared to the same in europe. For tuning or spares u have to order from the main dealer. but I...

Well, considering he's after an M3/M5 engine its safe to say it'd be going into a beemer, which have been efi for quite some time. That said one would have to question the feasibility and availability of one. With the sort of $$$ he's looking at he'd probably be better, easier and safer off to rebu...

Anyone has a set of these to let go?

Has anybody out here know of - better still have experience with a Chinese Medical Centre in Dubai? 1. Did it help? 2. How expensive are they? 3. Any general comments? What are you looking to do? Do you have a back pain or you just need chinese medication like herbs etc. I know of a pretty good Chi...

Hi there, just wanted some opinion on these 2 SUVs. Wondering which you would choose for the same money (About DHs70-80K)?? 1. 2004, Ford Explorer, 4.0V6 2. 2004, Dodge Durango (New Shape) I'm kinna new to Dubai and I won't know which dealers are better and which is not. So I would deeply appreciate...

I'm with Zook, i'd prefer Jap over American but I will tell you, everyone I know with a Durango has it in the shop about the same amount of time it is on the road. If you have your heart set on American, how about an Envoy? Fayz, thanks for the advise. I'm kinna more keen on the Explorer then the D...

Do all of them have a 6ltr engine ??

I think only the Escalade is 6.0L. The rest is about 5.0L and the Volvo is the smallest engine capacity 2.9 Turbo.

How was the 2004 discovery?? Any major problems with that?? I saw a few of those and found them pretty cool. Any complains??

Anyone has any of these cars??

Care to comment on it. I'm kinna lost as to what SUV to choose. Now toying with one of these.

The 2004 Discovery is good, which one are you planning? 4.8i? Just make sure the car is accident-free, with full service history. Now that you've come to a European catagory, you've got lots of choices! so its upto you to decide....also consider looking VW Touareg 3.2 V6...2004-2005, you'll get it ...

Hello there people, I just got myself an X5 and found that the AC is not working properly.

Also, the windows of my...
