  1. Great drive today. Thanks @Gaurav for showing us the way especially the area behind the Pink Rock. The flow was great and it was really enjoyable. Thanks @Nivinfor making some observations and sharing some driving tips.
  2. This is a certainly another perspective of looking at things and it is certainly a viable option as well.
  3. Based on your needs, if you are not too fussed with something that is more than 3 years old and more mileage, it is worth while to go for FJ, Prado or Fortuner. They would have 5 years warranty from Al Futtaim so it is still possible to get something with some residual warranty period remaining. If you want something newer and correspondingly lower mileage, I would personally go for Pajero or Montero. It is currently the buyer's market. So please test drive the cars that you have shortlisted and decide. Happy car hunting!
  4. I know right. You somehow needed them after you have kept them away. I think keeping it in the car neatly organized is important. I secured it with a net along with other stuff to prevent it from moving around.
  5. I just wonder whether you all keep the compressor in the car during the weekdays when you’re not driving in the desert ? i have been keeping mine in the car with the other gears because I fear showing up without a compressor.
  6. Whilst I was researching for air compressors, I wanted something portable and not installed in the vehicle as I do not know whether this hobby will take off or I may end up selling the air compressor. Besides ARB which is expensive, I also came across the Bushranger options. Coincidentally ACE was going promotion and Air Max III was going for AED999.
  7. @Srikumarokay but would like to stay on waitlist for this if in the unlikely event that there are insufficient takers or someone drop out. I’m on waitlist for pink rock.
  8. @Gaurav I would like to join the waitlist for this drive in case anyone drop out. Thanks.
  9. @Rahimdad your own name should be mentioned as well 😃 If only Ferrari is also at the sharp end of the grid challenging MB and RBR
  10. Anyone managed to catch the race yesterday - Hungary GP? I am quite impressed with Redbull for fixing Max's suspension on the grid and Max went on to secure no.2 spot on the podium. It was really working under pressure to the perfection. In case you are wondering, Max slide off and hit the tyre wall whilst driving to the starting grid.
  11. Sri, may I please join this since the other newbie drives are full. I am also interested to check out Qudra and I am sure I have something to learn since I have only done 2 drives.
  12. Hardly an expert but I’ll give it a shot. 1) didn’t do a slower trial run to check the bumps 2) too much speed. It is not that steep and does not require so much momentum 3) angle is incorrect ?
  13. Great drive today but when the other groups came it was quite intimidating 😅
  14. Thanks @Rahimdad for the guidance and pointers during the drive Interesting and scenic route.
  15. Yes agree that 78997 is a nice number. The only reason why you are asking is because you have emotional attachment to your own number. If that is the case, then go with your own number. I would too if I am emotionally attached to the number.
  16. Completely agree. Drive to Survive on Netflix and various Podcasts and interviews allow us to understand more about those drivers, the struggle they went through and how they got there and stay in F1
  17. I will be interested for Wadi drives because I will involve my family. Maybe I am not such an adrenalin junkie and will enjoy a less challenging drive with nice scenery.
  18. Yes, always about the money as we see almost everyday, what more cut throat business and highly profitable one, like F1
  19. Yup, still a rumour. Despite the fact that Vettel has not been driving well lately, he is still a relatively 'young' 4 times F1 champ. Hence, a very attractice option.
