View Full Version : I need a car
I need to buy a car but since I don’t know anything about cars I thought of asking here. What I’m looking for is something not above 6 or 7 thousands, of course good looking. I don’t know about other things but I’ll give you a clue of what I want the car to look like. Passat, Rover and Audi A4 and A6. I’m waiting for your suggestions.
haso0on 24-09-03, 02:28 PM um... if u want a 2 door sport car... get the pejot 407
its for 6 thousand i think
and if u want a car which looks like the a6 a4 and the rover.. um... lumina
is for 7 thousand
and if u pay 2 thousand more get the lumina SS
5.7 L
sport
Blossom 24-09-03, 02:29 PM i think you should get the pasat my freind has one and she is so comfortable with it.
haso0on 24-09-03, 02:37 PM isnt the passat for 9 ?
4-ever-young 24-09-03, 02:55 PM the full option one costs approx 10k no 1 that is..the no 2 doesnt have much so i dont think it worth buying passat!
How about Subaru "Legacy" how much do they cost nowadays?

I don't like 2 doors car so what I'm looking for is 4 doors. I thought about pejuet but I'm not sure. I'm looking for a good service as well, so do pejuet provide that?

it's too expinsive for me as I said i'm looking for 6 or 7 thousands. Maybe Bora or the new bettle although Im not sure about the prices.
Endure Whisper 24-09-03, 04:49 PM I have the same problem, but I wasn't thinking of getting a car now.
Anyway, Bora is a nice car :) I don't like beetles.. If you're feeling comfortable with Bora, I'd suggest to go for it!
Milliardo Peacecraft 24-09-03, 05:02 PM First of all, what is your purpose for having a car? Is it for daily commute, or you plan to have a hybrid daily drive/strip (race) duty, or is it all-out race? A daily driven car would be one that, preferably, is cost-efficient and will not be too much to maintain. I could suggest the Honda Civic in this case, as it is an excellent daily driver, and if you want to, you can later on modify it with aftermarket parts for strip duty (or you just have that need for speed).
haso0on 24-09-03, 05:12 PM y dont u buy a car with down payment (aq9at)?
lets say u buy the full opion passat for 10 K
and u pay thm um... 6 K
the other 4 K
pay it in 1 to 2 years for mayb 100 rials/month
Milliardo Peacecraft 25-09-03, 12:58 AM Originally posted by haso0on

You know very well that if you pay with downpayment you're actually paying more than the car's sticker price, don't you?
haso0on 25-09-03, 01:29 AM yeah i do
but u could buy that car...
Endure Whisper 25-09-03, 04:09 AM By the way how much does the Bora cost with down payment?
haso0on 25-09-03, 11:37 AM these prices are without down payments:
the Special Edition is around 6 (as i heard)
the 2.0 is around 5
the 1.6 is around 4

Of course I'll buy the car with down payment. I'm not planning to buy the car now but I just wanted to have an idea of the options I have. I can't pay 6 k just like that!!!! I will start work next month and I won't have my salary till after 3 months. That means if I'll buy a car it'll be by January maybe. Now I'm using my sister's car.
I went to check rav4 and camry yesterday and both of them are for 8 k. I also went to check lumeena number 4 is for 7 k and Subaru, Legacy and they have an offer foror it, 7 k with full options, but I heard that it uses petrol alot.
I think I'll go with peguet after all.
haso0on 25-09-03, 03:05 PM lumina number 4
is for 7 K
daaamn
i'd rather get a SS for 9 thn buy number 4

That's a good choice.. Good luck!!
Which peugout though?
since you are talking about Bora, it is a nice car but you can consider Golf or even Peguet 307 which is amazing[both are at the same price range i belive]
also cars in the class you mentioned, passat/a4/rover they dont come in the price you want, unless some of them i think passat number 3 is 7 K.
but keep in mind Milliardo Peacecraft 's suggestion
haso0on 26-09-03, 01:26 AM i think the 407 is for 6 k
Originally posted by Areej

The 307, but now I'm thinking about mini copper
Milliardo Peacecraft I thought about Honda but I'm also looking for good service, do Honda offer that?
Anyways guys thanks for your help, I'll go check all the cars and then I will tell you about it. if you are interested wait for my posts :color:

Originally posted by haso0on

Well I asked and was told that I can get it for less. Anyways I might go today to check.
Hey BloodRose are planning the Italian Job ????
:P Why not, although I didn't see the movie but I just saw the trailer.
haso0on 29-09-03, 05:08 PM i saw a mini on wed, which looked exactly like the one in the movie
it was soo nice!!
Mini is a really nice car. My brother had it. Are you sure about the price haso0on?!! Maybe they have reduced the prices now. I wuld really love to have that car although it has 2 doors. Or you meant the 4 doors one? maybe that's for 10 K
think about the 307 or 206 cc
it look's good
and the price is resonable
Arabian Princess 30-09-03, 12:49 PM How much is Golf VW ?
That car is nice, I took it for a test drive once and I feel in love with it.
If you want a reliable car, I advice you to go for ford. I have been using ford scince I started driving and it is a good car . Very light and quite strong.
Check this website: Ford: Focus (http://www.fordvehicles.com/cars/focus/glance/index.asp#Focus_SE_Sedan)
my sister bought golf for around 5500 but i think the prices went up since then because of the new model coming on and euro changes.
its a good car but if it had some problems you gonna pay alot for the spare parts and stuff.
Ford Focus is nice, dunno about the spare parts and its quality though, although Mondeo which is at the same level as passat but costs less.

Call it whatever you want Azure that if I'll be the mini for sure. I'm suppose to go there but I didn't get the chance till now.
there is a 4 door mini??
there is but I htink you have to order, I'm not not really sure though.
think about the 307 or 206 cc
Yeah I thought abut the 307 and I'll go check it out too.

Honda provides very good service here in the Philippines, so I can say that this would be true elsewhere. Very reliable. My car is 10 years old, and it still runs very well.

Well I don't think their service in Oman is good but I'll ask my brothers about it.
Stupid-Clown 03-10-03, 01:52 AM yeah alot of good features in Echo ..
Echo its a cheap car
Echo Dont Drink Petrol
Echo Its like a donkey
Echo its the best car
Hey clowny, I drove echo and I also drove a BMW 525 and believe me if I had the chance I would buy the BMW. It's true that echo doesn't drink alot of petrol but the safety is ZERO = 0
I think I'm gonna choose between Audi and Pasat that's my last decision. I know it costs more then my budget but I think it's worh wbuying or what do you think ppl?
haso0on 03-10-03, 08:03 PM yea i think its better to buy either the Audi or the VW Passat
bcoz their safer, stronger, looks nice...
i think that the a4 is alot better than the passat
it look speacial , beautiful , unique
haso0on 03-10-03, 11:25 PM yeah
but the passat is bigger from the inside, and stronger
we'll its up to BloodRose to choose :)
Well I don't know till now, I'm confused. I'll just go to the VW showroom and Audi too then I'll decide. But it'll be one of the for sure. I saw the passat and it looks really great from the inside. I'll let you know when I decide inshaallah. Thanks alot for the help guys
The new honda accord is really nice......my aunt has the older one which she bought for around dhs60,000.....not full option ofcourse.
I've seen the european version of the toyota correla.....very nice......you can order one from overseas....they will ship it to you.
Have you thought about the smart or a KIA?
what about chrysler??
Hmm I htought about the PT cruiser but I don't know.
Have you thought about the smart or a KIA?
Nope, smart is way too small and with 2 doors. as for KIA never crossed my mind
PT cruiser
it's a nice car but i think that's 10 or 12 thousand
GiNgOrO 08-10-03, 04:26 PM sirion , you can never go wrong with that one , it s the strongest car i haev ever seen in my life.
haso0on 08-10-03, 06:08 PM BloodRose
wait till Ramathan then buy a car
you know because for the offers and stuff
haso0on 09-10-03, 01:54 AM am alwayz right :p

Ok I know you ppl will hate me for this..... ok here it comes.. I won't buy the car now as i don't have money. I might buy it by January but not for sure either. My sister has a car, echo, but she went for studies so I'm driving her car at the moment. Everyone in the family is telling me not to buy a car now and I can use my sister's car till she gets back.
But her car is manual and I wanna drive Auto because of my back problem so I think that I'll buy the car when I get money. So I can buy it in Ramadhan, althoug I heard some say that in Ramadhan they just wanna get rid of old cars that's why they have offers.
haso0on 10-10-03, 04:54 PM i think it would be better if waited till january, as u said to get some money then buy the car
and about the ramathan give away car offer, i dont think that its true, because in ramathan thy give those offers bcoz of the Holy Month
So I'll let you know by january when I get a car InshAllah. The day before I saw A4, I was just staring at it till it was gone.
Rover 75
Cost 7000-7500 (Number 2)
V6, 2.5L, Very stable, looks like a BMW from the inside.
Warranty 3 years or 100,000
Service every 25,000
I asked about rover and I was told that after 2 years it doesn't work well. And when I buy a car I prefer to buy number 1. Though I like who rover looks like. It was one of my options till I asked about it. For how long did you have your car? I assume you have rover right?
haso0on 11-10-03, 06:18 PM i heard that the rover has aloot of engine problems, maybe their romers...

haso0on 17-10-03, 12:29 AM blood rose, did u check the Oman Motor Show in seeb ?

Kia, My cousin bought it... if I am not mistaken the model is Rio.. In terms of the car safety i must say it is very low.. the car look very good, but when you are in it, it feels like you are going to fly very soon! And if it get accidents (Allah forbid) then everyone in the car could be smashed with it. I dont know why but I dont trust that car when it comes to security.

yesterday when i went to the exsebition, i saw the Rio, the body of the car is really thin, but the inter. of the car is really nice..how much did your cousin buy it for? if more than 10K then he should have bought the Skoda, the one which looks like the passat, for 10K, number 1, stronger body, more security, and above all its not Korean!

On behalf of all the ppl in the English Sabla we would like to give u an advanced Mabrook from now,as 4 the car.....
1st-b4 buying it, u need to check the insurance, How much its gonna cost u?How old r u?coz if ur younger than 25yrs u will not b insured.
2nd-German cars r good solid cars, so a VW Bora is a good option,service is every 15k & its cheap.
3rd-2 door cars "sports" will cost u so much to insure.
4th-if u have the money, just go & buy urself a Bently Coupe & live ur life
U LIVE ONLY ONCE

Well I'm thinking about mum, cuz she's an old woman and its hard for her to get in the back seat. besides i just don't like 2 doors cars.... can't change that in me :) and i'm thinking about future as well... means when i get married and have children... i don't wanna end up buying another car later ;)
v6 4motion 21-10-03, 09:45 PM alright alright u need a car first of all the cars you should AVOID!
1-AUDI S3 (too expensive for what you get)
2-audi TT (too many technical issues)
3-Rover
something you should look into is the New Golf which is coming early in the summer the new cooper cabroilet (convertible)
and about insurance dont go 4 a 2door car becuase insurance would cost more so its good that your not going 4 a 2door
and if your looking for something sporty yet elegent you shold go for the Pegoet 307 which is selling like hot cakes and theyre many options.
and if your looking for a nice saloon you can go for the new and revised Passat W8 (which is the new engine) but that will cut you back a good 12grand.
another thing you shold look into is the alfa 147 but then again thats 2door
well you just tell me what your candidates are and i'll tell you the pro's and cons!
as long as its not an american car you'd be fine. and yeah they are alot of good japanese cars coming up in the market. with your price rang of 6>7 thousand you can get yourself a decent german or a top of the range jap
haso0on 22-10-03, 05:45 PM BLoodRose get the Opel Omega
its nice, strong, looks like an Audi A4, big, and cheap
its price range starts from 5K to 9K
v6 4motion 22-10-03, 10:04 PM yuo shouldnt only look at the car and its price and its looks you have 2 look at servicing the car which will be your long term expense! and believe me Omega's service is below average!!
haso0on 23-10-03, 12:36 AM la wallah?
i thought their service is good....
As v6 4motion said, you should look for good service as well... well I think I'll go for Golf... walla I'm confused and don't know what to get anymore :( at the end I won't buy anything....
v6 4motion 25-10-03, 11:00 PM good choice i think you should go 4 the golf :) get it in royal blue with black interior get the V5 because anything les is just not worth it :)

Thank u for the warm welcome....I have to say I'm suprised u managed to insure ur car by ur name & ur under 25,but I'm sure ur paying so so much more.......:sweat:
v6 4motion 26-10-03, 01:19 AM im insuring my car under my name but im paying the same "(its under fleet insurance ;) )

what is wrong with Rover?
v6 4motion 26-10-03, 11:43 PM first of all with the Rover for the price your getting it doesnt really over you much i mean ur buying a saloon car for around 13,000 which is only a 2.5 liter 180 bhp?! that deff not enough for a saloon car and the handeling is not that good and come on it doesnt even LOOK nice i could give you 101 reasons why not the rover! believe me
First I said that I want a car that is not more than 6k.... well i think I changed my mind... now I want one of 2... Pasat or Audi A4.... or what about jaguar?!!!
v6 4motion 29-10-03, 11:46 PM the jag is a good car, service is good 2, mmm i think u should go for the Audi or the passat caus theyre both in the same class. but i feel the passat has more engine choices to choose from.
the Jag X-type or the S-type r both really nice but a lil pricey tho (dono how much theyre going for now)
did u c the new legacy ?! it's fantastic
i saw it in oman near the wakala

if u want the passat
get the Skoda...looks identical to the Passat and raqum 1 is for 9K
v6 4motion 31-10-03, 02:55 AM the skoda looks NOTHING like the passat and besdies who is the dealer for skoda in oman..................mmm not wel knwon thats why u dont see many skoda in oman! u see plp dont think b4 they buy a car a car is a long term investment u want 2 have the dealer ready 2 back u up with parts etc

the dealer is Wa6iya Motors (Zubair Auto)
and they have the parts and everything
and trust me, my friend is Zubair, and he said that they are both the same, but the skoda is cheaper!
and i went into the skoda which looks like the Passat, identical!
I think from those small cars, I would go for Ford Focus.
Its Spanish made, German Technology used on wheels. I don't know some how I love that car. You get 17Km/1litre of petrol. This is amazing actually.
Its body is strong; I saw that here in Australia when we had an accident on Western Freeway. I understood that day it has very good body. Its pulling is not bad, very good spacing, you feel like comfortable with the seating, and it’s ergonomically healthy for your sitting. The leg can be kept 90 degree bent and can be opened to 120 degree wide which is actually freeing the blood to your feet, it doesn’t make swelling if you sit for a long time. I’ve taken it from Melbourne to Perth, Perth to Adelaide, and Adelaide to Melbourne back again, it was comfortable ride. It gives me the feeling that I’m in a C class Merc. The car is heavy and safe for speeding.
I don’t know why I liked it although I’ve been driving better than that back in England, but I feel this Ford Focus is amazing car….

Mr v6 4motion,it seems u havent been to Oman for a long time,Skoda has just been introduced recently to the Omani Market,thats why u see less Skodas on the road,where as in U.A.E they have been in the market for a long time,hence u see more of them there.
I have a Mitsu. Pajero & have used Mitsu Service in Oman a couple of times & I have to say they were good,their prices were cheaper than Dubai where I normally send the car for service.
I'm sure once the Skoda picks up in the market it will be driven by everyone & if its the same as VW Passat & cheaper by RO1000 then its good value for money.........
WHAT DO U THINK GUYS.... :wink:
v6 4motion 01-11-03, 02:17 AM well mr "Da man" i was in oman all summer, so i havent been there for a month or so now.
well if you look at skoda's sales INTERNATIONALLY its what shows how its REALLY doing and 2 tell u the truth theyre not doing very well.
oman and the gulf is such a SMALL market
and besides zubair compared 2 other car dealerships in oman theyre service and customer service is a lil slacking. theyre O.K but theyre slacking.
they sell good cars but they need 2 work on customer satisfaction. like bahwan
well im not puting the skoda down but u paying that extra 1000 riyal ur paying QUALITY of a german car
Thanks guys for all your help....
I think I'll go for the Pasat number 1, even my brother in low says I should go for it and he knows alot about cars.... so if you see a new Pasat by the end of Ramadhan that would be me :D
its been my pleasure dealing with you guys.... when I decide to change my car I'll contact you again ;)

[B]
well skoda was launched 2 on the 15th of Ocotber here, and its not named after Zubair Auto, but Watiya Motors same as the Audi and VW

I asked the price of the rover, it is about 6,987 nearly 7,000... that is the given price but If a person wants to buy it they can go lower than that.
Arabian Princess 02-11-03, 12:10 PM Amir,

This Ford Focus thingy, I don't know really what to say, its comfortable car, I love it so much.
While travelling we had this bed spread with us, we could flat down the back seat to the front put two pillows and sleep while we both felt tired of driving.
I will get back to Oman and buy me a ford focus for sure.... I LOVE THAT CAR :love:

Exactly Princess...
You know V6, I had a Jaguar sport back in England, I hated it because of it is so expensive to change anything in it. A plug would cost me around 70-100 pounds... its too much.... a super filter would cost me I don't know how much!!! d@mn. Then I changed, I took a land rover, that was a comfortable car, but then I had to leave to Oman and then to Australia, so I couldn't use it for long :(. I still like Land Rover. Its meant for Luxury.
Now, I don't like those Luxorious cars, I just like a simple car, and for that I think Ford Focus has everything if someone know how to design its interior like my friend's car. :love: her car so much...

Aha..
I asked the salesperson, about the engine stuff... because I heard that jaguars are not really good cars, very easy to break down. I aske him about it.. and he was like.... they have changed their engines to the ones of the bmw's! then if so, how come it is cheaper?

the sales man is theyre 2 SELL u the car he would not tell u if theres problems with the car! like hwen the Audi TT first came 2 oman they didnt konw anything abt the rear suspension problems that it made cars flipped, and when we asked them theyre like its not true! but i did some research and found out they had recalled all the audi TT and thats why u see the1 that came later came with a wing. the salesman wants 2 sell u the car
well jaguar have good engines and about me getting a cheaper price is because i get a certain % discount from MHD :) aand btw jaguar do not have BMW engines its the rovers that have bmw engines now :)

what about C - class mercedes benz... need more information and details please :angel: :inno:
http://www.mercedes-benz.com/com/e/home/products/passengercars/cclasssaloon/images/15027.jpg
Salam to all of you....:wave:
C Class, u'll get it in different engines i.e 1.8,2.2,2.4 & 3.2. It also comes in 4 diiferent options i.e Classic, Elegance, Avantgarde & Sport. I have seen the C 240 sport & its a beauty.
Nice & small, makin it easy to park & u have the sensors to aid you, it also has cruise control, airbags, sport seats & sporty spoilers with 18" rims.
Of course there is the C 55 which is the mean machine :6: but I think it is non existant in our beautiful Sultanate Of Oman :D
Price of the C 240 Sport is approx. DHS 145,000 in Dubai, I'm expecting it to be at least RO 16,000 in Oman.
P.S: I THINK ITS TIME TO BUY THE CAR SITI BLOOD ROSE ;)
v6 4motion 26-04-04, 03:08 AM hmmm yeah but the C55 has been having problems with many ECU's and rear suspension failures lately........bas its a beast of a machine
gimme a 6series or a M3 CSL anyday :)

thanks for the info... but you see i don't know about these engines but i think 2.2 is ok for me right? :lost: sorry don't know much about cars :p
now i don't want something sporty, the car i want is classic, something like in the pic. but i know this is top of the range and i can't afford it.. :sorry:
i prefer a 2 door car.. with reasonable price... so how much is the C180.. if there is such a car.. the website i found didn't provide much information..
i know i know.. this thread has been running since last year and i still didn;t buy a car.. maybe by October inshaAllah... but i like to know what i want from now :blush:
v6 4motion 27-04-04, 12:06 AM the C180 also comes in diff engine specs
the C180 goes for around 12>13 maybe even less riyal omani
its a realy cute car and i think it suits gurls very well :)

http://www.highresautoimages.com/mercedes/sportscoupe3.jpg
well on a C class anything above a 2.0 is a good enough engine you can go for a 2.0 kompresser which means its super charged which gives you a lil more power ;)
thanks for the info V... but i don't want a 2 doors car :bang:
can you show me something with 4 doors please.. C Class with reasonable price :angel: :inno:
tell you what.. i don't want to disturb members more.. so i will go car hunting myself :)
thanks everyone... you gave me useful information.. :wave:
