There are more than 5,750 used cars for sale in Dubai on LicensePlate.ae, from dealers and from private sellers. Half ask less than about AED 90,000, and the typical car is a 2022.
That is clearly more than the typical used car across the UAE as a whole: Dubai's market leans towards newer and more expensive cars. If your budget is tight, the cheaper end is still here — it is just a smaller share of what is on offer.
| Budget | Cars listed in Dubai |
|---|---|
| Under AED 20,000 | 309 |
| AED 20,000 – 50,000 | 1,172 |
| AED 50,000 – 100,000 | 1,423 |
| AED 100,000 – 200,000 | 1,385 |
| Over AED 200,000 | 1,487 |
About a quarter of the cars listed in Dubai ask under AED 50,000. At the cheapest end — under AED 20,000 — expect older cars with high mileage: small saloons such as the Sunny, Yaris and Accent, and older SUVs. Budget for an inspection and new tyres on top of the price, and check the service record before anything else.

Big SUVs dominate what is for sale in Dubai. Each model page lists every one of those cars across the UAE, and where there is a buying guide it shows the price by model year and what to check on that particular car.
The number is how many of that make are listed in Dubai; the link opens the make's page for the whole UAE.
| Seller | Cars listed in Dubai |

| Dealers and showrooms | 4,523 |
| Private owners | 1,251 |
A dealer can usually arrange finance, an inspection report and the transfer for you, and often a warranty — and prices for that. A private owner is often cheaper and knows the car's history first-hand, but the checks are yours. Dubai's largest cluster of used-car showrooms is around Ras Al Khor, if you want to see many cars in one afternoon.
2,822 adverts in Dubai say the seller can arrange finance — that is the seller's offer, not a bank approval.
Under UAE Central Bank rules, a bank finances at most 80% of a car's value, over at most five years. A "0% down payment" offer therefore does not remove the deposit: it is usually covered another way, built into the price or an insurance and service package. Ask the dealer to show you the total you will pay, not only the monthly figure.
4,613 of the cars listed in Dubai are advertised as GCC specification and 1,162 as imported. A GCC car was built for the heat and its history is easier to check here; an import is usually cheaper, and needs a VIN history report before you pay.
1. Check the car. Book a pre-purchase inspection at an RTA-approved testing centre or an independent garage. It costs little against a hidden repair.
2. Check the papers. The chassis number on the registration card (mulkiya) must match the car. Ask whether there is a bank loan on it — a financed car cannot be transferred until the bank releases it — and make sure the traffic fines are paid.
3. Insure it in your name. The transfer needs insurance for the new owner.
4. Transfer, then pay. Do the ownership transfer with the seller through the RTA, and pay when the car is in your name. Never pay a deposit or send money before you have seen the car and the transfer is under way.
That has its own page: how selling works here, and a free valuation of your car first.
Half of the used cars listed in Dubai ask less than about AED 90,000. The budget table above shows how many cars there are in each price range, from under AED 20,000 upwards.
Banks in the UAE finance at most 80% of a car's value, so a "0% down payment" offer covers the deposit another way. Compare the total amount you will pay.
A dealer usually handles finance, inspection and transfer and may give a warranty; a private seller is often cheaper. With a private sale, the checks are yours.
Your Emirates ID and driving licence, insurance in your name, and the seller's registration card. If the car was financed, the bank's release letter.
Through the RTA, with the seller, once the car has passed any required test and is insured in your name. Pay when the transfer is done, not before.
Every figure on this page is read from the adverts listed at the moment you load it and refreshes through the day. They are asking prices, not recorded sale prices.
