Hi jasongriffin28uk,

I don't think its possible to use right hand drive vehicle in a left hand drive road network ... its going to be very odd.

But anyway, its better to consult the traffic department in Madinat Khalifa for further directions :)

Hey Jason,

I dont think they will register the car here because its a right hand steering wheel.

Mrayes

You can sell it in the UK and buy a clean used one over here :)

You'll find the M5 here from 130,000 QAR and over
