  7. 35-40(Max), if everything is clean as per 79k Km. Carswitch advert adds 3k commission so seller tends to overprice their car on carswitch, search in other classified sites if same car available for 45-50 range, it will be easier to bring him down to 35-40 then.

  10. @Xaf structure is not supposed to make anyone wait for others as it's not a queue system. Every offroader gets their independent offroad rank based on their driving skills first and secondly based on their participation and teamwork mentioned in the structure matrix. I have observed you closely today and was impressed with your driving skills, same I have conveyed you twice. Let me make a recommendation for your fewbie promotion with other seniors who have observed you in your previous 2 drives and will get back to you in a day or two.
  11. Im sure it's red horse time now, speaking pure truth and nothing but the truth.
  12. Ditto, here for my 5 yo. He screams if he isn't belted for a fraction of a second.
  13. Do you really have a leather pants buddy, salute.......!
  14. How to get rid of coolant inside the engine jacket?
  15. WOW, I also like to know if it's related but I highly doubt. Btw, please share the coolant flush contact as I also need to flush my whole cooling system and refill.
  16. I tried that many times and look like stupid as why Im interfering, especially from local families. I see this A LOT in Warqa including kids popping out of sunroof, kids on driver's lap (yes really), kids on front seat without seat belt and what not.
  17. For sure shared transport, but not on cars instead will be like hyperloop, drones or individual high speed transport. Maybe teleportation like Matrix, you never know we all will be digitized through phone or fiber network. No roads, no traffic, no fuel, no delays.
  18. Nice topic @Barry Long ago, I have been fined for wrong speed when I was at 80 and got the radar for 102, since then every radar I pass my heart skips a beat to not to be faulty again and I literally glare in the lens for flash or no-flash. I used to use that 20 km grace speed a lot, but after that incident as I approach radar I come down to actual road speed minus the grace limit, just to be safe than sorry for 600 dhs. Second I'm most scared of pedestrian crossing when I am the first one to see the pedestrian and stop, I'm always worried about next lane guy should see my car and stop too, as pedestrian will have no visual of the second lane in case that guy miss. Third especially in bur dubai area, where STUPID parents put the pram first on road to stop the traffic literally make my blood boil as if someone fail to stop then that poor kid in the pram will be history due to idiotic parents.
  19. I drive at 8-10 PSI all the time with Geolander (semi-aggressive tread and sidewall) and never had a pop-out unless involved in an accident, bumping over the inevitable bush at very high speed. As far as I rem, I have had 2 pop-outs in last 3 years. I totally agree with Javier going lower than 8 PSI is practically useless as it will increase the drag than helping in climb. I tried Moreeb hill on 8 PSI and 6 PSI and 8 performed an inch better (surprisingly).
  20. Sri and Javier were very kind. I like to teach people how to get unstuck by letting them shovel, so they can learn faster
  21. Anyone here have a leak down tester or know who can lend one for few hours please? Found one on Amazon but delivery is too far, I need it urgently. Im happy to buy too, if someone knows a tool shop. https://www.amazon.ae/dp/B07V6KC619/
