Thank you @Frederic and everyone. When I came to Dubai for first time I was so fascinated to get the license and drive on roads. But when it comes to driving in deserts, the adrenaline is 1000% higher. And yes I am seriously considering a cheaper car, probably a pajero. And I might need some guidance for initial research on the topic. -

Thank you @Frederic and everyone for making it worthwhile getting up so early this morning. The sun peaking its head through the blanket of clouds and a beautifully blue sky was snapshot ready. I posted a few pictures for you all to see, now that I finally found where to do so on the media gallery.
