Middle-east used cars sites?

Pretty straightforward ... what are the most popular sites for used cars in the middle east? Specifically, trucks.

edit - if you have a dealer specializing in used Toyotas, that could work as well.

I have no idea what the prices are, and wondering if it's worth a shot to try to bring one over. Models never available in NA, LHD, no rust ... sounds all good to me!

Before someone mentions it ... as long as it is 15 years old, I can bring over any vehicle I want without restriction, plate it and drive on the street, hassle free.

Thanks

I cant think of that Toyota model that was introduced there and wasnt introduced in N.A.
Especially a truck. They're essentially the same ones we have just different names.

Nissan Patrol is what i wish we had over here though.
So easily tuneable.... and great price, its like the Supra of 4x4s.

Are you kidding me? We get nothing from Toyota over here!!!! We only get the pussified versions!

HZJ 105? Turbo-diesel, solid axles front and rear, OEM lockers. Not for NA. Same for the HDJ81. The diesel manual never made it. All we get is the IFS 100 gas V8 ... even from Lexus. Pffft.


The Prado series. Never ever made it to NA. The KZJ and HZJ are the ones I'm looking at. Specifically an KZJ77 or HZJ75/8 or perhaps an HZJ79 double cab (they seem pretty rare). Figures and code names are damn confusing.




Those my friend, are trucks.


I'm not sure which models have been available in the middle east over the years ... but it's worth checking. With some luck I won't get raped as if I bought in euros

I love the Patrol, but keep in mind I could get a 93/94 at best ... and those years had serious head issues. Parts aren't gonna be easy to find, so I'll need something that never breaks down ... a Toyota.

LOL OH.. Diesel Land Cruisers, forgot about those.
They're great vehicles. I am a huge fan of the model in the top pic.

The bottom one is commonly referred to as ''The Bin Laden" in some countries.

LC Prado as far as i know is a smaller version of the full size Land Cruiser we normally get here. One of my aunts drove one last time i saw her.

Good luck though. I think Autotrader.com has a United Arab Emirates site with sellers that are willing to export. And also, try googling Souq motors or something like that.

Nothing at all. There seems to be very very little in terms of cars 15 years old or more (a sine qua non condition to importation over here).
