4x4/SUV or a Sport Car in Doha?

Scorpie
By Scorpie

While I am moving to Doha, I am planning to buy a used car. I have been recommended to buy a 4x4 or SUV since the drivers in Doha can be a bit dangerous but I would like to drive a sports car such as Mustang rather than a 4x4 or SUV.

What would your recommend considering the potential risk in traffic and the easiness while selling the car later?

Thank you so much!

Dear accha, thank you for your comment but I am not coming there with negative perceptions. If I had that kind of perceptions, I would not come, nobody is pushing me :) Truly, with no joke, I am wondering your suggestion. Maybe for some other reason, you will suggest me 4x4 I don't know. I just want to know.

and dear Molten, I am not refusing 4x4 but let's say I'd prefer a sports car than 4x4 or SUV

Thanks a lot

Molten: The best period in a day is after sunset when you go to bed and people can relax a bit not having to read your STUPID posts. I am sure QLers are sick of your STUPID comments that seem to have no end. And today you woke up the wrong side of the bed and posted 7 of them one after another to hit out at me.

Go bury your head in the sand. The heat of the sand may help get your brain in proper working order.

You are downright STUPID, and everyone knows that.

Thuritha Please don't carried by Molten Metal's comment as the person loves to misguide and give false hopes to people. This has been going on for over six years.

Scorpio is right, it is people like you who are responsible for such a negative view on the residents here, if you ask me , yes.

First of all, you are coming to Doha with negative perceptions about this city. Even before you have landed here, you have blindly believed in what people have told you "the drivers in Doha can be a bit dangerous" and you have begun to consider "the potential risk in traffic". Doha roads are much safer than the ones in your country. No one here drives under the influence of alcohol or drugs as may be common in your part of the world.

Under such fears that you carry, I suggest you go for a 4X4 with special bumpers for additional protection. Furthermore, I also suggest you wear a hard hat while driving here should your vehicle roll over in an accident.
