East Jerusalem - Post Report Question and Answers
What kind of car do you recommend bringing to post, given the terrain, availability of parts, burglary/carjacking risks, etc.? What kind of car do you advise not to bring?
In East Jerusalem you will need to have a car, especially if you do not live downtown. Most foreigners buy new cars here, as anyone with a work visa can buy a duty-free car. It is generally not worthwhile to buy a used car unless you are buying a duty-free used car, which are in short supply. - May 2006
