As I got one of my car repainted recently, there was big hassle to get the Dubai Police permission paper for car repainting. After wasting two days in traffic hours coz of wrong information from official and unofficial channels, I like to list all of them below to help everyone here: You can't get that permission paper from any Dubai Police Station (Don't waste time) You can't get that permission paper from Dubai Police Headquarters (next to Al Mulla Plaza) You only get this permission from Dubai Police vehicle confiscated yard, next to Tasjeel Qusais, I think it's a CID department GPS Coordinate for this place: https://goo.gl/maps/t8hv6s7f9Rv (No pics allowed) Their timing is from 7 am to 1 pm only It cost 120 dhs and not 50 dhs You don't need paper if keeping same color and getting car painted in Dubai You do need paper even if keeping same color but getting car painted in Sharjah (that was my case) You do need paper if you change color and getting car painted in any emirates

I think in price range what you are looking buddy, you can max get to 06-08 model and not beyond. So this prolly ends up the whole discussion about newer vs older. Just only thing is pick the ride that is not modified (highly improbable) or slightly modified to get some life out of beaten soul.

I think @Gaurav is still driving a Pajero of that vintage

I'll be there, IA at meeting point.

@Rahimdadi will call you tomorrow.

wow, this is really nice looking classic. I too remember sitting in similar old merc outside UAE, that has spring based seats that keep on supporting you while on turns. Amazingly simple but effective concept, why newer cars doesn't come with these simple but effective features than tons of electronic gizmos that dies sooner than expected.

Rahimdad , Count us in , my Son and I will be joining this endeavor .. we will either come to Dragon Mart or to the spot directly . Drive /Ride safe ! Slick72

Try re-visiting the good ones on non-weekend days, as I stopped getting my car cleaned on weekends now as all places are overly crowded and pressurized.

I think Chev Impala is the best. The looks, style and the features are really amazing. I think this is the car which did complete justice to the title Sedan Car.
