Hi, The best place to buy a good SUV are Al Futtaim Automall (http://www.automalluae.com), 4x4 motors (http://www.4x4motors.com) and Off-road motors. These guys, especially the first one, guarantee the cars they sell, and so that gives you major peace of mind. Yes, they will be a few thousand more e...

Hey, I must say go with Hertz, for super service, or go to any hole-in-the-wall rent-a-car for super savings. Hertz once upgraded me to the next level of car for the whole 4 months i used it. And i paid only for a manual T.Echo! The smaller guys will give you Lancer/Sunny/Corolla/Echo, but cheaper t...

Hi all, I have been quite distressed by the response of the Muslims around the world. Good friends of mine who I have discussed this with feel that the publishing of these cartoons are especially offensive in light of recent events in the EU where people were punished for denying the holocaust.

Hey..

Check your PM and call me regarding my 4x4.

Happy hunting..

Hi, I think it will help your decision if you just remember that the penalties of the licenced car owner who lets an unlicenced person drive are real high, including black points on licence, impounding car, or even suspension of licence. So, if there is someone you REALLY don't like, go ahead and ta...

Hi all, Was hoping to get some pointers from you on the feasibility of doing a 10-day backpacking trip across Europe. Want to fly in anywhere, and then hopefully get train reservations so that most nights can be on the train. Minimal hotel reservations, and if necessary, train back to port of entry ...

Hey, as a person who has spent 1 and a half years in Dubai and now nearly 2 years in Abu Dhabi, lemme see if I can help.. General Living: - Abu Dhabi is smaller than Dubai, which means less time to get from one end to another. Also means your office location need not define where you live. As cabs a...

Hi, Again, personally, I prefer a manual, but you would get a better value if you were trying to sell an automatic. Still, when buying a Wrangler, you're committing to a lifestyle, and its not like buying any other Japanese 4 door. If you're looking for creature comforts and good resale value, a Wra...

Hi again, As I said, all insurance companies provide off-road cover FOR A FEE!! It is not covered by regular policies. It is like getting insurance for going to Oman. You have to specifically ask for it. So if you just decide to take a short hop through the sand one day, and wreck your ride, they ar...

hi, Have to disagree that "automatic on sand = big mistake"! Have driven my auto Cherokee with absolutely no problems faced because it was auto. of course, for my own satisfaction, would have preferred manual for the power on demand. If all ur friends' gears have broken b'coz of driving au...

Hi tdot.. For the most peace of mind, I would recommend first visiting the Audi dealer and checking their used cars. Another option is the Al Futtaim Automall or 4x4 motors, both of which have online lists of available vehicles. These dealers guarantee the cars they sell, and that is a huge load off...

All of them..

I meant the ideal car for a woman, of course.. not that all women try to make u roadkill!!

Peace..

avkurian

Oops, my bad..

Checked with some experts, and yes, there is gonna be a drop in engine capacity in the 2007 Wrangler. It'll be the 3.7L V6 currently in use in the Cherokee/Liberty.

The value of the 4.0L one will probably go up now!

Woah, Liban.. hold it there.. Not necessary that every time u go offroad it has to be in 4Lo. 4Lo is mostly ur backup when ur stuck or in a difficult situation. I recommend joining a forum like the dubai4x4.com, and you can get a great initiation into the sand. You can also get ur tech q's answered ...

http://www.7days.ae/2006/06/27/robber-romeo.html Interesting, eh? The man gets caught for stealing his 'prostitute' girlfriend's passport from her sponsor's house, and the police arrest him. If it is illegal for a sponsor to keep an employee's passport, and if prostitution is illegal in the country,...

Hi, check this out for some listings with telephone numbers. http://guide.theemiratesnetwork.com/living/property.php For some R&R and a nice place to socialise, try http://www.the-club.com If you've already got a job here, would make sense to tell the company to help you with finding a place. Or...

Hi, best bet is to check with HSBC Insurance brokers. They will give you the best rate from among a number of good Insurance companies. Call them on 800-4560. You will only need to go there to sign and pick up the policy. Everything else can be done by phone/fax/email. Have used them, and they even ...

hey, i highly recommend the Mazda 3 and the Honda Civic. Absolute bang for buck.. I personally think the Corolla is a nice car but the guys that sell it are the snootiest bunch. I deal with AF Trd Ent for my Jeep and they can be quite snotty about that even. Go for the Civic, drive it well, get it s...

avkurian

hey! Don't encourage Jeep by buying the Compass, PLEASE! Have no idea about the pricing, but would then recommend a Cherokee. It starts at 80k something or so, and is a great car. Had it for a year, and only sold it to get me a Wrangler. If you're stepping up to a 4x4, the Cherokee is a great option.

you can block these companies from sending you SMS again. Just send an SMS to 1011 mentioning the name or short-code you received the message from. These are third party companies, and not etisalat directly. For eg., if you receive a message from 2244 & u wanna block them, just type 'b 2244' and...

Hey, i recently sold my DXB registered car to a dealer in AUH, and this was the process I followed.. - We agree price, and buyer parks car in his showroom - gives me advance payment of AED 1000 (to finalise deal) - next day, Buyer meets me at bank with full payment, and I settle outstanding loan - g...

Hi, yes, Etisalat already has a 3.5G (HSPA) network and it covers 97% of the UAE. the BlackBerry Internet Service (For individuals) is priced at AED 185 domestic unlimited, and AED 295 for global unlimited. Don't think thats a very bad rate at all, if you're gonna be spending a lot of time online. H...

Hi, just some food for thought.. Todays papers are all screaming about how SZR is now a dream to drive on, and how Salik has actually made a difference to Dubai traffic. Also, Thursday was the last working day for a large number of schools, which every year means a 2 month period of slightly lighter...

Your company only needs some Govt document to keep. My policy has always been to let them keep my labour card, and I keep my passport. Tell your PRO/Admin that you want to take your passport, and will submit your labour card in its place. When you're done, you'll return passport and take back labour...
