Hi all.
I have just arrived from Sydney and looking to settle here in Abu Dhabi. There are a few things  I want to find out.
1. What is the best way to purchase a used car?
2. I have a work visa. What do I need to get a residency visa?
3. Where are the best places to buy second hand furniture?
4. Where can I go to join a sporting team?

Thank you for your help in advance.

Abdul.

Thank you Dave. What documents do I need to purchase a car using cash?
Also I am interested in joining a football (soccer) team.

Unless you start from that age then it's quite hard to join a team here. I have tried but its quite difficult. If any one else has more info, please do pass it on. I too would like to join
