will tend to use their 4x4's quite harshly. This is a generalisation, I admit, but i will not buy a 2nd hand Land Cruiser. I've seen them in the desert - engines must be over the red line almost all the time!
Western expats would probably (again generalised) use cars more cautiously.

There is no easy answer to this one. The best thing is to have electronic tests done on the engine. There is a place in Salwa Road that does it for about QR 100.
That avoids all the nationality issues.
