Company's new ride ... Toyota Previa



My company hired a car and driver to ferry us around everywhere in Abu Dhabi since most of us do not have a valid UAE driver's license. The driver in question is Basheer. Very dedicated and pleasing chap and prior to this, he was fetching us in his Toyota Camry station wagon. Pretty decent ride but with more staffs joining in soon, the Camry just isn't going to be big enough to fit the lot of us.

So upon signing a one year contract with my company, Basheer purchased a new vehicle to accomodate us. A more suitable one ... a classier one. :) He got the 2008 7-seater Toyota Previa (known as the Toyota Estima back home in M'sia). After ding-donging for a number of days ... pending approval for the insurance and loans, registration blah blah blah, he finally took delivery of his new 'baby' today. The car was only two hours old when I took these photos. The photo above does not do justice towards showcasing just how proud Basheer is of his new purchase. In fact, I believe he's celebrating the occasion now as I'm blogging this. Congrats Basheer ... you deserve it. In his own words ... CLASS!!! :)

Nice! I hope he can pick me up from the airport. Pls tell him not to drive like F1 drivers.

Ok ... will make sure he picks you up. :) Don't worry, Basheer is very very cautious with his new ride. So no Fast & Furious crazy driving on his part.
