Default Help needed on buying a car
We live in Cairo at the moment and are, hopefully, moving to El Gouna by the end of May. Our duty free status car needs to be sold and we need to buy a private car. We have run out of time to buy on our residents visas.

We have been told that you have to be able to register/license the car and that you cannot do this if you have a resident tourist visa which is all we seem to be eligible for.

Can anyone please help because my head is spinning with visas, cars, freight, house buying, etc.

Waiting in anticipation of a solution!!!!

Margaret

Hi Margaret your welcome - no harm in posting on both sites. Hopefully you will get it sorted. Do you actually drive in Cairo??

You have to be joking!!!! We have a driver which is another luxury we will have to learn to do without but the traffic in Hurghada is much better than Cairo.

LOL I was sitting here hoping for that response. You would be one very brave lady otherwise. I was scared stiff and I was a passenger!!

Thanks, but we really need to buy a car. Too expensive to rent on a long term basis.
