The 5.6‑liter V8 pushes 400 hp, yet its fuel consumption climbs to 14 L/100 km in stop‑and‑go traffic. Around 48,000 km the timing chain often stretches, causing a rattling noise that owners report as “engine knock.” Dealers usually downplay the symptom, but the wear can force a timing‑chain replacement that costs AED 28,000.

The suspension bushings wear early; a cracked bushing runs AED 6,500 to replace and can cause uneven tyre wear. The electronic stability control module tends to overheat in desert, and a faulty unit requires a replacement that costs AED 9,200. Finally, the rear‑door hinges corrode under salty coastal air, and fixing the corrosion adds AED 4,800 to the bill. You will notice these problems during the lift, and the repair costs quickly eclipse the of a basic inspection.

Resale values dip by 12 % after the first three years, so the fleet should weigh the higher operating against the image.
