Hello

I'm new to Qatar and I'm considering buying a 2013 Ford Explorer from a used car dealership in Salwa Rd. Is Ford Explorer a safe buy in Qatar ito maintenance, reliability and resale? Any advice / tips from experienced used car buyers would be appreciated. Thank you.

Accha, 3 months are max period, my pal. if we get an attractive deal when somebody is going back to her country & she sells her car, then we must take that by reducing the price as per our wish.

The spare parts of Ford are not easily available in the local market and you may need to go to the agents whenever a need arises. That may prove costly. Suggest, you go for other brands such as Toyota or Nissan that have good resale value and spares are easily available in the local market.

You don't need to think over this for '3 months!"

Never buy a car from a used shop. Take 3 months but choose from the general public or from your colleagues or neighbous for the best deal. Stop and think.
