  1. cyborg, if you see from Car's perspective you are right. but you need to see from bike or trike perspective to appreciate the out of league innovative design and thought process behind the creation. I loved it completely and I think it will look more awesome and practical with glass canopy (f1 style) covering the driver's face.
  2. I personally don't like these miniature looking SUV based on big-brother looks. If company wants to get into smaller SUV, design something from scracth and don't dilute the market reputation of their flagship bigger SUV's like Cayenne, Touareg, CX-9, Q7 etc. This actually creates a lot of confusion and ruin the bigger sibbling market value and reputation overtime.
  3. Thing I love about Musaffah is all workshop in almost one place, drive around an hour and see which sign board is shiny and which workshop is having more Mercedes standing inside, go there boom.
  4. How many traffic violation you had in one year? It can be parking fine, speeding ticket, lane discipline, use of mobile, seat belt or anything in general. If you don't mind sharing, leave a comment with further details of what violation it was....? Mine is 5-10, out of which majority are speeding tickets and then parking time exceeding time ticket.
  5. In Dubai you have Mercedes-r-us, VIP german agargae, slber arrow, Munich motor works. They all are professional and slightly expensive than other general service garage, but lot cheaper than dealer. No idea on AD, Im sorry.
  6. I know city is small and cheaper by an inch than comparing to Civic, but anyone knows the real comparison in real life of using it. Is City in cheaper in maintenance and spare parts too?Is City is better fuel mileage?Is city is better resale value?Is city is better in reliability, durability?Is city is better in safety and modern technology...?Someone in my close family stuck on city and I failed to make him understand that Civic better, so I am wondering now as to how to understand that city is better in overall comparison. Thanks.
  7. You can definitely stick it on sunroof and it works fine, and I have even seen people cutting the tag to small white box reducing its size by half and then sticking in front just under the rear view glass on windscreen. Looks very nice and not at all shouting.
  8. F1 is the charm of racing since forever. Nascar is highly stock these days and what's fun in watching slow cars that we drive on daily basis. You want some hi-speed action. I went to Yas Abu Dhabi for first Grand Prix in UAE and still remember the experience of ear deafening noise of F1 cars.
  9. Check attached of what is gauge manifold. What victor meant is let the AC guy check it with gauge manifold sticking on your car AC system and they will be able to advise what is wrong or not...?
  10. Ajman sticker guys location: https://www.facebook.com/CarSticker/timeline Around here you will have few more shops doing very good job at very competitive rates. I haven't tried it but my gym friends swear by their work esp this facebook guy.
  11. Pickup trucks are not ready to die just now as their purpose is unique and irreplaceable with any SUV or cars. Few of the good truck in today market worth considering, test driving and comparing are: Chevrolet Silverado GMC Sierra Dodge Ram Ford F-150 (not raptor) Nissan Titan Toyota Tundra
  12. No offence to any nationalities and I dont want to start any racism war here, I am simply curious to know which is the most preferred nationality for buying used car from...? I am seeing few cars lately and depending on different nationality I see the huge difference in car keeping. Some cars are so clean and well taken care of that it smells almost like factory new and few others are moderately used with chipped buttons and knobs and worst is few having a philip screw screwed in the dashboard and driver sill to have additional wiring for music system Please vote above the preferred nationality and have a fair reason for explanation (not because you like that country or it's your country). Thanks
  13. Well in Porsche timing belt schedule is at 100,000 Kms and not 50k miles. I had a Cayenne couple of years back and I remember how expensive damn thing change was at dealership. Phew.
  14. Well from design perspective Kia have improved a lot in last few years and started looking extremely pretty almost like Audi cars. From quality, I dont think so as they still sell very cheap so they must be cutting lot of corners.
  15. Seems Hisham wants to sell his car. For selling your car for best possible price, atleast get all the problem fixed from minor to major as if problem fix cost 100 aed then buyer will deduct 200 so better get job done in 100 and then sell for fair price. If you are in rush, put sale price 2-5% less than market value, to sell it faster.
  16. Do you still have this beauty available....? How much expecting?
  17. Well that actually goes for all German cars to maintain regularly and respect them a lot if you want to enjoy with them, same like extra pretty girl-friend or else they get upset for long time.
  18. Chevrolet Camaro (old shape) is the bestest classic musle car I like, new one ruin the legacy of the legend.
  19. hahahah, good you didnt shared this thought with tree huggers yet. SSSSSHHHHHH.........!
  20. V8 engine racing, I think has improved tremendously from the the engine horsepower increase point of view and plus the tremendous decrease in fuel consuption. V8 in 90's were delivering 200 hp and driking 25l/100 wherease today V8 good pony cars deliver 400+ horsepower and sip 12-15L/100 kms. Second improvement, I think is the noise and reliability of engine hard wearing components. This is again an advancement as we all learn and so as the engineers have learnt this with time in using good grade pistons, timing chains, valves, etc that can withstand that level of thrashing on a regular basis. Third prolly, is the gearing (that has nothing to do with V8) per say, but more in car engineering evolution as 3-4 gears max in 90's transformed to 8-10 gears now, gives very big room for driver and choosing the right gear for all almost all style of driving. What you do sahan, studying cars or engineering...?
  21. Refer to the owners manual, as there is lot more required in service than jsut oil change. To answer your question, its every 5000 km you need to change Oil and every 10,000km you need to replace the oil filter in almost all Hyundai cars.
  22. Researching little on Mustang tells that before 2010 model was having 4.6L V8 motor and producing 300hp, and 2011 onwards 3.7L V6 produces same and V8 produce 412 hp. Any takers for V6 engine, as I am heavily confused with 300+ hp must be good enough for that Pony car in Dubai...! Im thinking of 2011 or 2012 model in range of 60-70k AED so I can either choose V6 with GCC specs or V8 with US Specs. I know very little about specs confusion so appreciate if someone can shed some light on differences between GCC specs and US specs in Ford Mustang 2011 onwards. Thanks in advance.
  23. I heard there are types of spark plug wires for a car. What are they? Does anyone know about this?
  24. Hey A3 Onwers! I am planning to buy A3. Had a small question. Does A3 comes up with gloves compartment. If yes, then whats the size of the same?
