Given that the old car rule has been disbanded, its like importing any other car as long as it passes the vehicle fitness tests.

I would however advise you to call the Dubai Traffic Police in Ghusais and get the proper rules for vintage cars, as they had devised something after the new rule was supposed to come in. Best to comply with that.

The 5 year import rule is still in place (though I hope I'm wrong)

I was thinking about the jeep yes !! but not the one that I posted... that is a right hand drive and this one's a left hand drive willy but looks quite teh same as well... Its just amazing in this kind of weather with an open top, side and front aswell!!

Would teh five year rule exclude teh cars older than 30 years as they can be classified as classics??

I was speaking to some Ajman second hand car dealers a few days ago, and they say no such law on old car import ban is being implemented. Their business would be severely disturbed if that was the case.
