Services
These are small, personal services built around the exhibition calendar in Dubai. Group sizes are deliberately small, sessions are unhurried, and nothing here involves selling a car or passing your details to anyone who does. All prices are indicative and confirmed before anything is booked.
What can be arranged
Practical help around a show visit
-
Show-day planning session
Ninety minutes, in person in DIFC or by telephone, spent working out which halls are worth your day, which hours to avoid, what to wear, where the seating is and which four stands to aim for. You leave with a written plan and a hall route.
- Written route and timing plan
- Four target stands chosen with you
- Parking and arrival notes for the venue
AED 450
-
Guided hall walk
A two-hour walk through one exhibition hall with no more than twelve people, covering roughly a dozen cars in proper detail. Two seated pauses are built into the route, and the pace is set by the slowest walker rather than the fastest.
- Maximum twelve people per walk
- Two seated pauses of ten minutes
- Printed note sheet for each car seen
AED 700 per person
-
Concours lawn morning
An early start on a lawn event, covering how the judging is organised, which classes matter, how to talk to owners and where to stand for the departure at the end. Ends before the heat builds, with shade and water arranged throughout.
- Early arrival for the soft light
- Introductions to willing owners
- Shaded seating and water for the morning
AED 900
-
Preview evening support
Help with getting a place at a quieter preview evening and with using it well: which three cars to give your time to, what to ask the technical staff, and how to record the answers before the evening blurs into a pleasant memory.
- Guidance on where to request a place
- Three cars chosen against your brief
- Question list prepared in advance
AED 1,200
-
Test drive preparation
A session devoted to the drive itself: which route to insist on, how to have the car left standing in the sun beforehand, what to test in the first twenty minutes, and the five questions a stand can never answer about ride, noise and cooling.
- Route requirements written out
- Checklist for heat and cabin cooling
- Debrief call after the drive
AED 550
-
Shortlist consultation
Two hours turning a full notebook into three honest candidates, with the brief written first and the running costs looked up together. No car is recommended and no showroom is introduced; the list is yours and it stays with you.
- Written four-line ownership brief
- Running cost comparison for each car
- Agreed order of test drives
AED 850
All prices are indicative and quoted in dirhams. They are confirmed in writing before anything is arranged, and venue entry tickets, parking and refreshments are not included unless the description says so.

Why this site exists
About this site
This is a personal site about car exhibitions and luxury shows in the Emirates, written by one private individual for readers who have been driving long enough to know what they actually want from a car.

Why this site exists
How it works
Five steps from a first telephone call to the notes you keep afterwards. Nothing is charged until step three, and the arrangement can be stopped at any point without a reason being given.

Take the next show slowly
If there is an exhibition, a lawn morning or a preview evening you are thinking about, a short conversation beforehand usually makes the difference between a tiring day and a memorable one. Nothing is sold and nothing is arranged until you say so.
