Hi all.. I am offered a job in Qatar and have accepted. I won't enumerate the perks but its way better than what is offered to me by the same co. in another GCC. Part of the offer is a car inclusive of maint + petrol.

My question is: I have a 4x4 American car and i can bring in Qatar, model 2008 48km mileage, very good condition no accident. Is it worth keeping (just need to pay 50k approx qr. off the bank)? or selling and getting a new one in Doha? Because i am planning to sell and get another one in Qatar

I am eager to know if the cost of car in Qatar good? Can i get another 4x4, same yr, same mileage /-a-t-/ this amount too in Qatar?

Your suggestions is highly appreciated. Thanks

You will not get a good 4*4 of your current car specs (48k mileage/2008 model) for QR 50k. I would consider importing the current car based on costs and procedures related to importing the car.

Recently Qatar Central Bank has made a rule that banks can finance only 80% cost of a new car in Qatar. The remaining 20% cash you have to pay upfront. So maybe it is better to bring your existing car.
