Buy the Garmin Colorado 300 from Carrefour. Its cheaper there than in the Garmin store. It costs about 1550 in Carrefour. Then buy the map also in Carrefour. Middle east NT.

Then go to the Garmin store and buy the car mounting kit, which is just a USB charger cable for the lighter plug and a suction cup holder for the windscreen.

When you set it in the profile for Automotive, it is good for Doha. When in recreational mode it will show where you are and not try to figure out a road you are on. And it will plot your route, so next time in the desert you will know where to go and you can drive back the same way.
