Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed, member of the Abu Dhabi Executive Council and chairman of Abu Dhabi Executive Office, visited the UAE pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai on Friday.
During the visit, Sheikh Khaled toured the pavilion’s various zones, learning about the different themes and the UAE’s unique position as a country that is home to people from more than 200 countries.
He talked to the pavilion team about their experiences of connecting with people from all over the world during the event.
He also praised their efforts to showcase the UAE’s culture to the event’s many visitors.
The UAE pavilion portrays the country’s rich cultural legacy, community stories, the values of its people, its deep-rooted history and the leadership’s vision for the future.
While the interior of the pavilion aims to engage the mind, the exterior aims to grab attention, with the four-storey structure covered with 28 moveable carbon-fibre wings.
Tips for used car buyers
- Choose cars with GCC specifications
- Get a service history for cars less than five years old
- Don’t go cheap on the inspection
- Check for oil leaks
- Do a Google search on the standard problems for your car model
- Do your due diligence. Get a transfer of ownership done at an official RTA centre
- Check the vehicle’s condition. You don’t want to buy a car that’s a good deal but ends up costing you Dh10,000 in repairs every month
- Validate warranty and service contracts with the relevant agency and and make sure they are valid when ownership is transferred
- If you are planning to sell the car soon, buy one with a good resale value. The two most popular cars in the UAE are black or white in colour and other colours are harder to sell
