need to buy a car

Post by MalteJK »

So why don't he get a 2012 rubicon ;) ? Nothing wrong with that ... In my opinion :-D


10k Cars tend to fall apart on the First Occasion if you don't put another 10-20k into it ...

And then you still have a old car...
While a tj Might be also in reach for about 35-40 ... Then ONLY liftkit, tires, cai, exhaust and headers as well as a superchips or predator tune... And you're almost done :-D

Well, I would say get a TJ and sell the hard top for AED5,000. 8-)

This way, you get a newer car that have less mechanical problems, hopefully! :mrgreen:

.. and guys, there is nothing wrong with my Rust Bucket !! in case you are "hinting" to it when you are speaking ! :?

Maamoun, do your brother a favor and DON'T buy a YJ (pre 97 wrangler)!
weak front axle u-joints, weak rear axle (for bigger tires?), driveshaft problems ... bla bla bla ...
aftermarket parts ONLY available in the US for some $$$ ... spare parts here very rare or junk from junk yards!
so if you don not want to spend serious cash in making it a extreme and tough beast ... stay away!

The YJ would be the right pile of crap to keep your brother and you busy and to feed the anti Jeep fraction :mrgreen: :lol:

If your brother insists on a wrangler buy something like this for ~25k :
nice, OME lift, desert ready

I have seen a nice and super reasonable low mileage Z71 avalanche in Dubai :

It has a lot of goodies, but I can do a lot better ride for a 265k.

Bottom line, its all personal choice and priorities of people where to spend and what to upgrade.
