Should I bring my Mitsubishi to Dubai

[K-Dog]

I will be relocating to Dubai from the US. I have a Mitsubishi Montero Sport 2001 with 81000 miles. Is it worth it to ship it to Dubai? Please provide me pros and cons. Thanks

No, not really worth it in my view! Too old and high mileage.

Montero is not sold here...I think its called Nativa here. Check out the prices for this vehicle/model here in Dubai and then do the maths if it is worth to pay the 2000-3000 dollars for transport plus the 5% duty...not to mention the hassle involved (although its not that much hassle..just processes to go through).

root is right. Don't bother with it, sell it off there and get something else when you get here.

Thanks for your replies. What is the 5% duty on?

Depends on the taxes involved on having the that truck shipped in here. Might want to consider having a new one but if you really want that montero be with you I guess you need to have some extra cash for some payments.
