Desert Dweller

Thank you, Angela and I had a great day , it was so good to finally meet you all. I loved the drive and grew and grew in confidence with all the encouragement I received from everyone. I can't wait for the next newbie drive!! We did get the police report and everything is in hand regarding the repair. Thank you again for your advice with regards to this matter.

You can share ours if needed

Hi guys, I don't have a two way radio, but I got everything else (deflator, compressor, snatch strap and a shovel). Should I go and buy it before the drive? If so, where should I buy it from and what specification should I get?

It is. The full options version. We’ve used it before to off-road in Al Qudra and some wadis here in the UAE as well as Oman... using 4WD

Thank you! But I have to say that I’m still looking for a car haha, the Montero is my friend’s, who’s gonna be joining me this time. Can’t wait!

Hi. Thank you for this opportunity! I’ll be driving my friend’s Montero Sport and it does have both front and rear tow hooks.

Sorry for causing all this 😂 But I have to admit that I'm really enjoying reading it. I'll get a notebook and start making notes hihi

You were right, indeed! Thank you. Let the obsession begin haha

I definitely will! Thank you for offering. The one that was advertised today is already gone... I'll have to keep looking all the time and be faster next time, but I'm patient enough

I'll write it all down and make sure I follow it step by step! I really appreciate your help, guys! Can't thank you enough

Hi again, Okay so I'm now actively looking at buying a Prado. I have seen this one for sale on dubizzle https://dubai.dubizzle.com/motors/used-cars/toyota/prado/2018/12/8/toyota-prado-2008-v6-40-ltr-vx-limited-edi-2/?back=L3NlYXJjaC8%2Fa2V5d29yZHM9dG95b3RhK3ByYWRvJmlzX2Jhc2ljX3NlYXJjaF93aWRnZXQ9MSZpc19zZWFyY2g9MQ%3D%3D&pos=1 I know I can't go by an advert alone and will def go and view it etc... but this one looks decent to me. What should I be looking for to ensure it is "clean"?

Which model/year and max of km would you recommend then? Thank you again!

I totally agree! Pajero is, in fact, my second option. As you mentioned, it would do both everyday drive and off-roads when needed being greatly reliable. I do appreciate your opinion. Thanks for sharing it
