You can drive it but without a UAE visa:

You won't be able to renew registration or insurance for it in the UAE

You won't be able to exit it from KSA to the UAE (beyond 3 months, foreign registered car gets fined per day)

You won't be able to sell or export the car

Better to export the car to KSA prior to visa cancellation and register it there.

is it legal to drive UAE registered car in KSA for 3 months containing both residence visas (work/KSA and investor/UAE) with both countries' valid driving licences?

thanks
