Buying a Secondhand Car in Dubai

[arn22110]

Hi Guy's

I am in the market for a secondhand SUV in Dubai. What is the least hastle free, Dubizzle or Dealer and can anyone recommend the best options?

I ask as I recently went to look at a car and the owner was telling me we had to go to the police/test station to do the transfer. It sounded as if it would take up half the day!

You do need to go to RTA but there's no reason for it to take half a day.
Get all your paperwork in order before you go and it's a really quick process... under an hour for me the last few times I've done it.

If you want the full step by step let me know and I'll write it!

When I bought my latest, I spent approx 7 minutes in the RTA office. Did help to have a smooth talking Saudi a la Candora as a seller though.
