although technically manual gear cars are good but for Doha driving, Automatic cars are preferable for the reasons mentioned in the other posts.

It is preferable to go for automatic for ease of driving and better focus on road to reach your destination...............more importantly traffic is growing in GCC and if u intend to drive down to Dubai..............than better have automatic car to ease ur tension and stress building on roads.................

Due to traffic congestion, preference for automatic gear. If you buy new vehicle, then go for Automatic gear vehicle. Manual gear vehcile is going away from the current market.

Personally, in Qatar; Auto.

There are so many idiots around that it is much easier to concentrate fully on the road, rather than the gears.

There is also not alot of 'smooth' driving in Doha; lots of stop, start, stop at traffic signals, so automatic saves all that '1st gear, neautral' arm-work.

Just my opinion!
