I am a new entrant to Doha from India. Plan to buy a new Car/ 4x4 mainly for city use and occassional long drive with family. My budget is up to QAR 100,000 that too in EMIs. What will be the best choice availabe to me ? I prefer a vehicle with comfortable driving and reasonable maintianace cost. Which is better-a sedan or 4x4. What about Suzuki Grand Vitara, Corolla, and Chevorlet Cruze. Could anyone advice me please ? Thanks for your valuabe guidance.

A Volvo S40 is the safest car you can buy within your budget. For QR 99,000 you get a brand new 2011 vehicle with free insurance, servicing and registration.

Good day,I say you go for the Toyota Rav4 as it is easy to sell when you want to also it is very economic in fuel and spare parts.It is a saloon and an SUV at the same time,very easy to drive around Doha and you can also enjoy a nice Sealine day with the family.Good luck.

Unless you plan going off road every weekend just get a saloon. Corolla is good Chevy is crap.

corolla is not 4x4. your best bet for the price you are looking will be a Nissan x-trial, Honda mrv / crv, toyota rav4
