Let’s face it, the UAE is car-crazy, and you can’t turn your head anywhere without spotting a Maserati, Porsche or Ferrari whizzing (or smugly cruising) by.
Perhaps it’s time to get yourself a taste of the action too, and if you’re a petrolhead, ‘Pimp My Ride’ fanatic, or aspiring luxury car owner, then it’s time to take a road trip to the Garden City where this week a feast of motoring innovation and inspiration is on display.
The second edition of MOTEX 2013 returns to Al Ain this Thursday to Sunday at the Al Ain Convention Centre, Al Khabisi Hall 2, and all the leading motoring brands and buys will be on display, so don’t forget your cheque book.
With more than 50 companies from the biggest players in the automotive industry in the world here to promote more than 12 new auto models in the UAE, the MOTEX 2013 is all a moneyed car fan could ask for.
Come down and feast your eyes on the latest and most modern cars, vehicles, spare parts, car accessories and other products any motoring enthusiast could take in at once.
There will also be an opportunity for financial institutions, and those in the banking and insurance sector to promote their services.
Several activities and events will also be held to attract the public and highlights of the show include Bin Hamoodah, the Chevrolet car agency in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain, who will be displaying new models for three cars – the TRAVERSE 2013, the ZL 1 Camaro 2013, and Trail Blazer 2013.
Global manufacturers will be unveiling new models of cars and motorcycles from the world’s best brands too, and there will also be a motorsport district where visitors can experience firsthand what innovative new equipment and technology are taking the motoring world by storm at present.
Marketing Manager in Tomouh Exhibition and conferences company Mr. Zafer Hamsho said of the event: “This Motor Show is in the ideal location with suitable timing to buy a car.
“If the buyer wants to have a new car, this is the perfect show because all the requested and interested authorities are here together.
“We are expected to receive more than 10,000 visitors to stop by and meet their needs at MOTEX,” he added.
Ever saw an Alpha Romeo up close? Well, if not, you’ll see it here – the only car in the world valued at a whopping Dh15 Million! What’s more, you can do a bit of shopping in the dedicated ‘Tuning World’ where bespoke trends and technologies in vehicle tuning, upgrading and style can be found.
“MOTEX in Al Ain is considered as the only stage in Abu Dhabi that is interested in the cars and its requirements,” commented Rashid Ali Al Zahmi of Tomouh Exhibitions & Conferences Company.
“This exhibition is a unique meeting for all the cars’ producers and distributors, financial agencies and the logistic companies (as in maintenance and cars accessories), as well as the related services companies to meet and see the promotions offered.
“MOTEX 2013 is a great opportunity for the visitors too to watch and experience up-to-date model cars and their specifications too.”
