Why did Vijay Sethupathi walk into a UAE showroom looking for a retro classic?
In this episode of Gedi Maaro, we explore the growing love for classic and retro cars in the UAE — from vintage Mercedes, Mustangs and Land Cruisers to the underrated models still worth buying today.
We also look at why some classics are rising in value, the biggest mistakes first-time buyers make, and how to get into the retro car world without spending a fortune.
Because sometimes, the coolest car in the parking lot isn’t the newest one, it’s the one with a story.
