Hi Guys - any recommendations for alloy wheels in Dubai? 

Ideally after Alpina (OEM or Replica) and maybe AC Schnitzer - had a look online but not really finding much in Dubai. 

If not - anyone have experience of ordering alloy wheels from US / Canada / UK and know about shipping costs?

Car in question - 2000 E38 750Li.

Hi Guys, 

I purchased a 2000 E38 750Li and will receive it in 7 days time - any recommendations on the best BMW garage in Dubai? 

It is sold with leaks and the front left seat controls have a problem (as in i dont think they work - not sure if electrical problem or mechanical) so i want to get it checked over, maybe serviced and valeted. 

Thanks for any advice. 

Hey Barry - it would probably be between 2006-2009 G5 / G55 with the G65 conversion kit (if that makes a difference - not sure if just cosmetics other than the alloys). 

I am making a shortlist of cars for both me and my wife:- 

Hers will be a G-Wagon or maybe even a Porsche Cayenne GTS and mine i am not so sure of - typical guy wanting all the cars! So far I am thinking Porsche 1995 911-993, Mustang 66-69 or even a Mercedes SL 1995. Mine would need to be a daily also so whilst i like the classic style cars it would need to have some level of reliability  

Have you done any other review BTW? Your one on the Mustang was fantastic  

Hi Everyone. 

I am considering buying a 2004-2008 G-Wagon for my wife and i was wondering if anyone can share their ownership experience? 

> What is the reliability like? 

> Ownership costs? 

> Drive, ride and comfort? 

Thanks for any input and feedback. 

Hi Everyone, 

I would like to hear anyones feedback about owning a classic Mustang - so 66-69 era. 

How is the maintenance and running costs? Reliability? Driving and ownership experience? e.g. can AC deal with Dubai heat. 

Also - anyone who has done any customization work on theirs - i have seen some with bigger wheels on the rear than the front which look super cool. Also, if you have had the interior trim swapped out - what did you get done? Who done it? How much did it cost? 

Thanks and look forward to hearing your experiences.

Hey Gaurav - i would be buying it locally but it doesnt list if it is GCC spec or not (it is something i would check if / when taking it for a test drive). Thanks for the advice about the GCC conversion as i would have considered that an option if the 993 was not GGC spec. 

Hi Guys - hoping someone has some owner knowledge of what it is like having a 911-993 (1995) model in Dubai heat?

I believe the 993 is air cooled so wondered how it would cope with Dubai temps (both winter and summer) - same goes with AC and can it handle the heat? 

I will be living in Dubai full time likely from next year (my wife is there now but i work away in Europe) so will need to get a car and one of the options is a 911 993. I intend to use it as a Daily Driver but would love to hear anyones experience of owning one? Even just general feedback.
