Are Used Car Parts a Good Option in the UAE? Here's What You Need to Know

The UAE is home to a large and diverse automotive market, where car owners take great pride in maintaining and upgrading their vehicles. With the rising costs of new car parts and repairs, many car owners are turning to used car parts as a more affordable alternative. But is buying used car parts a good option for UAE residents? In this blog, we’ll dive into the advantages and things you should consider before opting for used car parts UAE.

The Rising Popularity of Used Car Parts in the UAE

Used car parts have been gaining popularity among car owners in the UAE for several reasons. Firstly, the price of new car parts can be quite steep, especially for premium or imported vehicles. With many UAE residents owning luxury cars or vehicles imported from abroad, the costs of genuine parts can put a strain on their budgets. This is where used car parts come in, offering a cost-effective solution without compromising on quality.

Additionally, the UAE has a large number of car dismantling and recycling companies, making it easy to find high-quality used car parts. Whether you need a replacement bumper, engine component, or even a side mirror, you can often find what you're looking for at a fraction of the price of a new part.

Quality and Reliability of Used Car Parts

One common concern when buying used car parts is the quality and reliability of the items. While it's true that used parts can sometimes be worn or damaged, many used parts are in excellent condition and have plenty of life left in them. The key to ensuring you get quality parts is to choose a reliable supplier. In the UAE, there are reputable dealers who thoroughly inspect and test used car parts before putting them on sale. This means that, as long as you buy from a trusted source, you can enjoy significant savings without sacrificing performance.

Moreover, buying used car parts is also environmentally friendly. Instead of letting parts go to waste, they are recycled and reused, helping reduce the carbon footprint. This makes used car parts an appealing option for those looking to make a more sustainable choice while saving money.

Where to Find Used Car Parts in the UAE

With so many options available, it’s essential to know where to look for high-quality used car parts. The UAE has numerous online platforms and marketplaces that connect buyers with sellers of used car parts. You can find a wide variety of parts for various makes and models, all with detailed descriptions and prices. Additionally, many brick-and-mortar stores in cities like Dubai and Abu Dhabi specialize in used auto parts, allowing you to inspect the parts in person before making a purchase.

One of the key benefits of buying used car parts in the UAE is the convenience. You can easily search for parts online, compare prices, and have them delivered right to your doorstep. Many suppliers also offer warranties on used parts, giving you added peace of mind that your purchase is protected.

In conclusion, used car parts in the UAE offer a practical and cost-effective solution for car owners who need repairs or replacements. By purchasing from reliable sources, you can find high-quality, functional parts at a fraction of the cost of new ones. Whether you're fixing a minor issue or looking for a major replacement, used car parts are definitely worth considering.

It’s rare that it reaches 100 degrees in the suburbs of Portland, Oregon.

Even rarer still is the presence of an all-gold Dodge Challenger, its reflection giving the appearance of a bejeweled shooting star pulling into the parking lot.

This one also has a vanity license plate – “Sammyy” – that enhances the car’s extraterrestrial appearance.

The Challenger’s occupant exits and joins me at a table. As she takes a seat across from me, a group of 20-somethings not too far away becomes intrigued.

More stares start to accrue from the outdoor mall goers. Next up is a young couple pushing a stroller, followed by the employees at the coffee shop I had just exited.

A minute ago, neither myself nor the table I was at seemed to warrant much, if any, attention.

You can get the sense that “somebody” just entered the premises, even if they’re not quite sure who that somebody is.

I can tell that the attention phases me more than my recently-arrived guest. Despite the now fishbowl-like dynamic between the two of us and the mall-goers, she seems to barely notice.

Then again, when you have more than 2.5 million followers on instagram and nearly half a million more on Tik Tok, being recognized by random passerby doesn’t come as a surprise like it would for most.

Rockstar? No, influencer

I distinctly remember the plethora of classmates I graduated high school with who promised to one day grow up and become “rockstars.”

Unsurprisingly, I haven’t heard from any of those classmates since. What is surprising is how anachronistic the notion of being a “rockstar” has become.

The reality is that “rockstar” should probably be replaced with a new term – ”influencer.” Sure, it’s not quite as catchy, but it’s far more accurate when describing the world’s latest (and perhaps most enviable) celebrity class.

These days, very real rock stars have nothing on the modern day Influencer.

Influencing by the numbers

What little data on the subject tells us is that, in 2016, social media influencing was just under a $2 billion industry ($1.7B, for those with a penchant for exactness).

This figure grew to $3B in 2017, and $4.6B in 2018.

In 2020, estimates tell us that the sector is likely to surpass the $10B mark.

While that may not seem like a lot of money, think of it this way – in a little under 4 years, the size of the influencing industry grew 500%.

Should the industry continue on its current growth trajectory, it will become a $50B industry by 2024.

To put this in perspective, Goldman Sachs estimates that the total value of all recorded music streaming will grow to about $30B by 2030. That means that it will take some years for music to reach just half of what influencing brings in annually.

By some metrics, influencers have become more relevant as celebrities than their musical counterparts. It’s happened quickly; adults who use social media religiously often can’t see it.

But real professional influencers are out there. As a crowd begins forming near our table, I begin to witness firsthand what these ridiculous financial statistics truly mean.

Who is Sammyy02k?

Since 2014, Samantha Krieger has gone by a number of different names. These days, she’s known as Sammyy02k.

Despite her reluctance to do in-person interviews, she’s agreed to be the subject of an Artvoice feature on the rise of social media influence.

And while Krieger can exercise her massive reach with just a few taps of a smartphone, a lot of misinformation about her continues to circulate.

As part of her agreement to the interview, I offer to help clarify the basics about just who exactly she is.

Samantha Krieger, AKA Sammyy02k

Samantha Krieger was born in Portland, Oregon. For some years, she was no different than you or me, working tedious retail jobs and driving a non-gold car.

At Lakeridge high school, she was dealt with taunts from wealthy classmates. It’s likely these experiences would activate whatever latent stardom was already within her.

After graduating from Portland State University in 2014, Krieger had a vision.

She suspected, correctly, that it doesn’t take much to at least get started as an influencer.

You need photos and/or video, sure… but given the prevalence of acceptable cameras on the backs of phones, finding a suitable recording setup was simple.

The second ingredient Krieger inferred was something less tangible – the courage required to be exceptional.

Despite her natural shyness, she had ambitions that extended beyond what she thought her bachelors degree would help achieve. Then, one day, it clicked.

“You could say I decided to become an ‘antisocial social media star.’”

“I did what I wanted to do, and I knew there was going to be a way to make it work for me.”

From 0 to 60 (thousand followers)

Like any new profile, at one point, @Sammyy02k had 0 followers.

Constant content and connection with followers helped drive things quickly, however.

A few hundred followers within a month turned into one thousand, and one thousand turned into tens of thousands in less than a year.

While impressive to most, Krieger knew there was more to be gained.

“Once I hit 50 or 60 thousand, things started to snowball. I hit the gas.”

@Sammyy02k posted more content, becoming more aware of her developing voice with every post.

At 500k followers, the contracts rolled in.

Brand building, Sammyy02k style

Krieger’s first contract of note was in Spring 2018, a lucrative deal with clothing brand Fashion Nova.

Now, instead of developing a brand on her own money and time, Krieger had companies competing against one another for the privilege of paying her to do what she loved.

The Fashion Nova contract was quickly followed by others, and within just a matter of months, Krieger’s lifestyle had changed dramatically.

She quit her last remaining part-time gig and moved into a luxury 2-bedroom apartment in Portland’s famed Pearl District.

With newfound status, however, came the need for significant soul searching.

Overcoming obstacles, digital and personal

Not too long after inking the Fashion Nova deal, Sammyy02k was offered to do a paid appearance at a party in downtown Portland. While there, she got a call from the police.

A gray Dodge Charger registered in her name had crashed into a median in China Town. The driver had fled, and the car was totaled.

Krieger immediately had a suspect in mind: a reckless boyfriend who had started taking advantage of her recently-acquired celebrity status.

Boyfriends weren’t the only concerns that Krieger had to deal with – even some of her own friends had started to become jealous, the relationships turning toxic.

To her friends, Krieger was still known as just “Sam”. People in her circle had difficulty comprehending the controlled entrepreneurism required to run @Sammyy02k.

They’d ask for shoutouts or suggest off-brand posts, not understanding that the Instagram profile required attention to detail and discipline.

Old friends becoming enemies seems like an overplayed Hollywood trope.

For a young adult who now could command thousands of dollars for just a few minutes of work, it was reality.

The type of loneliness that hides in shadows of success began to stretch further and further into Krieger’s personal life. The totalled car was the last straw.

While on the phone with the police at her first paid party appearance, Krieger took a deep breath and decided that staying on her desired path would require serious changes.

“I saw this as an opportunity where I could come back, and make a statement.”

It turned out that ditching the car (and the boyfriend) would be one of her best career decisions yet.

A car is born

A few weeks after the incident, Sammyy02k returned from a luxurious all-paid overseas trip to the Seychelles with a new travel sponsor. Krieger decided that she “needed a new whip.”

By now, Krieger had registered an LLC in her name. Business was coming fast and steady, and it wasn’t uncommon for her to be recognized on the street – not only in Portland, but in Los Angeles and even cities as far away as Kansas City.

Krieger elaborates:

“At this point, I was really stepping into my role as an influencer. This is when I really refined my style, my brand, and my image.”

For you and me, “refining your style” might mean picking up a few shirts from a department store.

To Krieger, it meant buying a brand new custom Dodge Challenger R/T wrapped in metallic gold with scissor-doors, the kind you’ll find on a Lamborghini.

According to Krieger, the car represents the essence of her brand, and the luxury of travel. It’s now one of the most recognized facets of her style.

Sammyy02k all over the world

Sammyy02k’s influence, today, is international.

With sponsorship deals taking her to the Seychelles, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and beyond, she is now recognized in 4 continents.

She prides herself on showing her fans different places around the world. The path less traveled, the freedom to be everywhere, the luxury lifestyle that many in our always-connected society dream of.

“I feel connected to the road, and traveling to exotic locations”

The opportunities that sudden stardom has afforded her seem almost surreal, even to her. Normalcy is a mirage in the rear view mirror.

Responding to criticism

In mid-2019, Krieger was the main guest on a Portland Fashion Week panel. Already an influencer to influencers, she insisted that whatever secret ingredients success exist come naturally.

During a Q&A, she fielded numerous questions regarding her chosen career path. Not all of the questions were softballs.

Some questioned the materialism and sexuality often used by influencers.

The response was simple:

“Your opinions don’t pay my bills.”

Always on the go

With more followers pouring in every day, Sammyy02k stays busy. She recounts tales of distant travels, and the types of perks that I thought were originally reserved for a few select people who orbited high above in the LA movie industry.

Thirty minutes into the interview, I notice that a distant crowd has accumulated around our table like rings around Saturn.

Krieger barely seems to notice. A reminder goes off on her phone, a notification about another engagement she has back in the city.

After a polite exchange of thank yous and goodbyes, she heads back to her car.

I hear the exhaust note of the Challenger float away from the parking lot as I gather my notes and get up from the table.

As I glance up, the crowd has already dispersed. The only people left pay me no mind as they stare at their phones.

Headlines

NYC reopening (AP) New York City hits a key point Monday in trying to rebound from the nation’s deadliest coronavirus outbreak. For the first time in three months, New Yorkers will be able to dine out, though only at outdoor tables. Shoppers can once again browse in the city’s destination stores. Shaggy heads can get haircuts. Cooped-up kids can finally climb playground monkey bars instead of apartment walls. Office workers can return to their desks, though many won’t yet. The virus has been blamed for over 22,000 New York City deaths. The death toll has been in single digits in recent days. Infections are down, but between 200 and 400 people have still been testing positive for the virus each day over the past two weeks, according to city data.

Another shooting in Seattle protest zone leaves 1 wounded (AP) One person was wounded in what was the second shooting in Seattle’s protest zone in less than 48 hours, police said. The shooting happened late Sunday night in the area near Seattle’s downtown that is known as CHOP, for “Capitol Hill Occupied Protest,” police tweeted, adding that one person was at a hospital with a gunshot wound. The Sunday shooting followed a pre-dawn shooting on Saturday in a park within the zone that left a 19-year-old man dead and a 33-year-old man critically injured. The CHOP zone is a several-block area cordoned off by protesters near a police station in the city’s Capitol Hill neighborhood.

With no flights, Argentine sails across Atlantic to see parents (AFP) “Mission accomplished!” That joyful declaration came from Juan Manuel Ballestero, an Argentine sailor who, unable to fly home from Portugal due to the pandemic, crossed the ocean alone in his modest sailboat to see his aging parents. The 47-year-old completed an exhausting 85-day odyssey in his small boat, the nine-meter (30-foot) “Skua.” After testing negative for COVID-19 on arrival, Ballestero was cleared to set foot on dry land to see his mother 82-year-old Nilda and father Carlos, aged 90. “I’ve achieved what I’ve been fighting for these last three months,” he told AFP. “It came down to this: to be with the family. That’s why I came.” Ballestero, who works in Spain, hatched his ambitious plan for a single-handed sea passage after flights back to Argentina were canceled because of the pandemic.

Surprise medical bills (NYT) Last week, my colleague Sarah Kliff noticed something strange. A medical lab in Dallas had charged as much as $2,315 apiece for coronavirus tests, even though a test typically costs $100. Sarah called the lab to ask about the price—and the lab quickly dropped it to $300. In her years of covering health care for Vox and now The Times, Sarah has frequently reported on the arbitrary nature of medical costs, often highlighting extreme examples. After these examples receive public attention, health care providers sometimes reduce the price. Of course, most medical bills don’t become the subject of journalistic investigations. Which means that medical labs, drug companies, hospitals and doctors’ offices are often able to charge high prices to insurance companies and patients, without consequence. “If you look at pretty much any other developed country—Canada, Britain, France, Germany, Singapore, the list goes on—the government does some version of rate setting,” Sarah told us. “The United States doesn’t.” That’s one reason that the cost of health care in the U.S. is higher than in any other country.

Turkey’s lonely tourist attractions face make-or-break week (Reuters) Turkey’s Mediterranean coasts and historic attractions face a critical week as the government presses to open borders and salvage at least part of a tourist season already battered by the coronavirus pandemic. With beaches largely empty and many hotels deciding whether to open, Tourism Minister Mehmet Ersoy told Reuters he hoped the world’s sixth-largest destination could attract up to half of last year’s 45 million arrivals. But much depends on talks to begin flights from Russia, Germany and Britain—also hard hit by the virus—which should reach some conclusions by early next week, he said. The stakes are high for Turkey, where a rebound this month in COVID-19 cases has raised concerns in a country where tourism accounts for up to 12% of the economy. Foreign arrivals fell by two thirds in the first five months of the year.

Virus cases surge in India, US, but slow in China, Korea (AP) The world saw the largest daily increases yet in coronavirus cases, with infections soaring in India’s rural villages after migrant workers fled major cities. India’s coronavirus caseload climbed by nearly 15,000 as of Monday to 425,282, with more than 13,000 deaths, the health ministry reported. Nearly 90% of India’s poorest districts have cases, though the outbreak remains centered in Delhi, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu states, which are home to major cities. Infections slowed in China and South Korea, suggesting some progress in stemming their newest outbreaks. But despite clear headway in containing the virus in regions that suffered early outbreaks, globally the number of new virus cases has soared in recent days. In Brazil, Iraq, India and the United States, hospitals are scrambling to cope.

China Knocks Out Tyson Imports Following Coronavirus Outbreak (Foreign Policy) China has temporarily suspended the import of poultry products from an Arkansas-based Tyson Foods processing plant after reports of a mass coronavirus outbreak at the company’s processing facilities. Tyson is the second largest chicken processor in the world with chicken sales of $13.1 billion (out of total sales of $42.4 billion) in 2019. The World Health Organization says there is no evidence that a person can contract the coronavirus from food or food packaging, but Chinese authorities—chastened by a recent outbreak at a Beijing food market—seem to be taking a hard line. China-based experts have floated the possibility that any more problems with U.S. food exporters could lead to a dissolution of the trade deal on natural disaster grounds—and an end to $36.5 billion in agricultural products that China must buy from the United States as part of the agreement.

Australia Fears Second Wave as State Tightens Virus Controls (Bloomberg) Australia’s second-most populous state has tightened coronavirus controls as a spike in cases triggers fears the nation could be hit by a second wave of infections. Victoria extended a state of emergency by four weeks to July 20, halved the number of visitors allowed in homes to 5 and delayed a planned increase in the size of gatherings in cafes, restaurants and pubs. The weekend announcement, and a jump in cases in countries including the U.S., Israel and South Korea, heightened market concerns about the difficulty of reviving economic growth while controlling the spread of Covid-19.

As Lebanon sinks into crisis, fear of crime grows (Reuters) A financial crisis that has swept Lebanon since last year means more and more families have little means to cope as the currency collapses and the state offers little or no help. The country faces what is seen as the biggest threat to its stability since the 1975-1990 civil war. In the first four months of 2020, murders in Lebanon doubled from the same period last year. Car thefts jumped nearly 50% and burglaries 20%, according to a report by the Beirut-based research firm Information International, based on police data. As the currency plunges, more unrest is feared in a country with a tumultuous history and where sectarian tensions are never far from the surface. As the currency plunges, more unrest is feared in a country with a tumultuous history and where sectarian tensions are never far from the surface. A World Food Programme report this month found that 50% of Lebanese, as well as 63% of Palestinians and 75% of Syrians in the country, had feared they would not have enough to eat over the past month. A security official linked spiralling prices to what he described as friction in the streets. “We’re still at the start, it’s only going to get bigger,” he said.

Dubai set to reopen for tourism, allow residents to travel (Washington Post) Dubai authorities announced late Sunday that the city would once again be allowing in tourists—with a negative coronavirus test result—starting July 7. Residents will also be allowed to travel again starting Monday. The new travel rules for Dubai, a wealthy Persian Gulf emirate known for its soaring skyscrapers, luxury hotels and beaches, reflects the importance of tourism to the economy. Unlike United Arab Emirates capital Abu Dhabi, Dubai does not have oil and its economy relies significantly on international travel and tourism. In 2019, more than 16 million tourists visited Dubai. The hotels, restaurants and other facilities catering to visitors have been desolate since a ban in late March on all arrivals except citizens. Even residency-visa holders—some 90 percent of the population—were not permitted to return to the country until just recently.

The most expensive cars in the world are often well built, exclusive and fast. Not only that but they’re also pieces of precious art, usually cherished years after their production.

While most of these recently produced vehicles are rather expensive (some almost unaffordable), they’re a sheer pleasure to admire.

Here is a list of 7 of the most expensive cars in the world right now

1. Bugatti La Voiture Noire: $18.7 Million

At $18.7 million, the Bugatti La Voiture Noire is the world’s most expensive new car ever sold. The La Voiture Noire, or “The Black Car,” debuted at the Geneva International Motor Show in March 2019.

Bugatti made the La Voiture Noire as a contemporary creation of their classic Type 57SC Atlantic. Among the specifics borrowed from the 57SC include the car’s six tailpipes. The sleek ride packs 1,180 pound-feet of torque and 1,500 horsepower and propels from 0-60 mph in 2.5 seconds.

Its quad-turbo W-16 engine features a top speed of 261 mph. According to Bugatti’s spokesperson, Tim Bravo, this one-off single unit car is a Grand Turismo. It’s a piece of art in line that compares to highly exclusive luxury and fashion brands in France.

2. Rolls-Royce Sweptail: $13 Million

The Rolls-Royce Sweptail is a bespoke luxury car. This one-off design made its public debut hosted by the manufacturer at the Concorso d’Eleganza on the shores of Lake Como. The Sweptail features a massive Pantheon grille of any ultramodern Rolls-Royce, milled from aluminum ingots and hand-polished to a mirror finish.

The R-R also features a large panoramic glass roof, framed in polished aluminum rails that drip down the rearmost part of the car. To evoke the design of racing yachts, the rear has a raked stern. The interior is nothing but an abundance of polished Macassar Ebony and Paldao wood trim for light-and-dark interiors.

3. Bugatti Centodieci: $8.9 Million

The Chiron-based car is another masterpiece from Bugatti. The Centodieci, which means “one hundred and ten” in Italian, is a limited-edition car that tributes the EB110. Going for $8.9 million, the top 1% might tell you it’s a bargain compared to the almost $19 million La Voiture Noire.

The Centodieci adorns a more angular design than other models from Bugatti like the Veyron and the Chiron. While the interior isn’t done yet, speculations are that it will feature a layout similar to the Chiron’s. However, it will include lots of model-specific accents and trim pieces.

The car is a 4 turbo-charged mid-range engine vehicle powered by a version of the Chiron’s 8.0-litre W16 that produces 1,600 horsepower at 7,000 rpm. The power allows the car to reach 0-60mph in 2.4 seconds, reaching a top speed of 236mph.

4. Mercedes-Benz Maybach Exelero: $8 Million

The Maybach Exelero was designed to do one job─ putting to test some very serious tires (whopping 23-inch wheels!). The Dracula-style getaway car combines the elegance and best quality features of a high-end limousine from luxury hires that you can see more here about.

With a top speed that rivals some of the most expensive cars in the world, this car is the cream of the crop for a few reasons. The concept of this 2.6-tonne car was based on the Maybach 57.

Its engine is a 5.9-liter twin-turbo V12 with 3 valves per cylinder, delivering 691 horsepower and 737 pound-feet of torque. This power propels the Exelero 0-60 mph in 4.4 seconds, clocking speeds in excess of 217 miles per hour.

5. Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita: $4.8 Million

The Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita is a rare Swedish hypercar. The manufacturer intended to produce three units but the cost of production was so high that they ended up producing just two.

The car weighs 1.28 tons, accelerates 0-62mph in 2.9 seconds, and can reach a top speed of 254mph. It features an all-aluminum 4.8-liter V8 engine and 2 superchargers. These deliver 1,018 horsepower and 796 pound-feet of torque via a torque-sensitive limited-slip differential and a one-of-a-kind 6-speed transverse gearbox.

The Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita features a diamond weave carbon fiber finish that sparkles like millions of tiny white diamonds when hit by the sun. To double as a roadster, it has a detachable hardtop that you can store in the front trunk. It also includes a tire monitoring system, an Inconel exhaust system, a custom-made double wing and carbon-ceramic brakes with ABS.

6. 2015 Lamborghini Veneno: $4.5 Million

The Lamborghini Veneno, the Roadster model, is stunning from every angle and amongst the most expensive cars for good reason. The car, introduced in Abu Dhabi, features upgrades from its antecedent. The Veneno’s overall outlook resembles the coupe version. It retains the aggressive exterior styling except for its lack of a roof.

Nine units were produced, each with a price tag of $4.8 million. The Veneno incorporates a carbon-ceramic braking system, 4 sizable exhaust pipes, a 6.5-liter V12 engine and generates 750hp. With a power ratio of 4.38, this Roadster can accelerate 0-60mph in 2.9 seconds and reaches a limited speed of 221mph.

7. Lamborghini Sian: $3.6 Million

This hybrid supercar was unveiled at the Frankfurt motor show as a tribute to the late Ferdinand K. Piëch. Sian features futuristic LED and aggressive lines, making it one of the company’s most artful creations. It packs a 6.5-liter V12 engine similar to that of the Aventador SVJ; just a little better.

The Sian comes with an added 48-volt mild-hybrid system. This provides an additional 34 electric horsepower into the system, totaling to 819hp─ thus beating SVJ’s 770hp. Lamborghini claims the car can go from 0-60mph in 2.8 seconds and that they’ve limited the top speed to 217mph.

Get Into the Most Expensive Cars in the World

The most expensive cars in the world aren’t just a mode of transportation. They are rolling pieces of art that often capture the priorities of the most-affluent persons, as well as the flamboyance and swagger of those who want to get heads turning.

Note that there’s no shortage of exotic and luxury cars. While money can’t buy happiness, it can buy a good-looking ride. So, if you could choose one from this list, which one would it be?

New Orient Express Hotels: A Train Ride Back in Time

(Bloomberg) — More than 130 years ago, the Orient Express redefined luxury train travel, leaving an indelible mark on popular culture. Although the rail line has taken its farewell journey, a new line of hotels is ensuring that you can still enjoy the opulence of legendary carriages, without the risk of motion sickness.

Accor, doing business as AccorHotels, is relaunching a slate of hotels with the Orient Express name. The first will open in Bangkok next summer, with 10 total properties by 2030.

“If we succeed by sharing the history, guests will feel like they are part of the myth of the Orient Express,” says Guillaume de Saint Lager, executive director of the Orient Express Hotels.

The Bangkok Orient Express hotel will be located in the 78-story King Power Mahanakhon skyscraper, renowned for its pixelated, Lego-like facade. The second-tallest building in the city is also home to the Ritz-Carlton Residence.

Although the Orient Express never traveled to Bangkok, interior designer Tristan Auer seeks to bring its historic aura to the new location by combining Thai and French artistic styles. The hotel will have 154 rooms, a rooftop pool with views over the bustling city, two restaurants, a spa, and two bars.

What’s in a Name?

This is not the first time the Orient Express name has been used for luxury lodging. And the history is as twisted as an Agatha Christie tale.

France’s government rail group SNCF has owned the Orient Express brand name since the 1970s. It previously allowed U.K. hotel group Orient-Express Hotels, established in 1976, to use the name for its portfolio of 45 luxury hotels, along with six luxury trains, three river cruises, and a restaurant.

In 2014, Orient-Express Hotels announced that it would rebrand its holdings as Belmond Ltd., derived from the Latin word for beautiful, and is now part of LVMH. On terminating its licensing agreement, Ralph Aruzza, Orient-Express Hotels’ chief sales and marketing officer, said at the time that the change occurred in part because consumers identified the Orient Express name with the iconic train and not the brand’s multifaceted portfolio.

Then, in 2017, AccorHotels acquired a 50% stake in the Orient Express name, and SNCF indicated it would develop its own line of hotels under the moniker.

A Rich History

Much more than the previous Belmond properties, which were luxurious but stopped short of a connecting theme, AccorHotels is trying to capitalize on the mythical quality of the name by infusing stories of the original train into its new chain. The company hired historian Arthur Mettetal to be its brand heritage manager.

“The train is the expression of luxury as applied to a vehicle,” he says. “More than just a train, it has become a cultural object and a source of inspiration for literature and cinema.”

The Orient Express embarked on its maiden passage in 1883, covering the 3,959 miles between Paris and Constantinople in 13 days. Some of its prime came during the art deco period of the 1920s, when new Pullman lounge cars were introduced, with designs by glassmaker René Lalique and decorator René Prou. Destinations included Munich, Budapest, and Constantinople (now Istanbul), explains author and historian Arjan den Boer, who has written about the Orient Express. “It has to do with the exotic destinations,” he says of the train’s fame. “With the luxury, it was out of reach for most people.”

Then, of course, there’s the well-known book, Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie, published in 1934 and most recently made for a second time as a movie directed by and starring Kenneth Branagh with a who’s whodunit of a cast, including Penélope Cruz, Judi Dench, Willem Dafoe, Johnny Depp, and Michelle Pfeiffer.

“The Agatha Christie book has given it a romanticism, but I think she chose that because it was already quite famous and full of intrigue,” says railway historian and journalist Christian Wolmar. “It always had a sense of adventure about traveling on it. Before the airlines arrived, it was the way to get to Turkey.”

Coaches in the Orient Express offered the most luxurious features of the time, such as intricate wood paneling, leather armchairs, and silk sheets. The meal services, which could be up to eight courses, were top-notch as well, featuring crystal decanters, fresh white tablecloths, and glittering glasses.

“You meet all kinds of people on the train. By car is more private, and plane is more quick,” Den Boer says. “You dine together, you pass all kinds of countries. It’s relaxing and exciting.”

A Train in a Hotel

Auer, the Bangkok hotel’s interior designer, used these historic sleeper trains as his inspiration, incorporating features such as oval windows with stained glass and leather paneling. Decorations with lacquer, silk, ceramics, and basketwork in the lobby will echo the trimmings and cabinet work in individual rooms.

“I was most excited about the design of the bathroom,” Auer notes. “The details are endless, from the swivel mirrors to the lacquer panels made in Thailand.”

For the guest rooms, he installed custom banquettes and leather headboards with small pockets to store items such as phones, books, and glasses, and showcased old photographs on the walls, with a book about the train’s history in each room. Auer gave the public a preview of the design this month at the annual AD Intérieurs show in Paris organized by France’s Architectural Digest magazine.

He displayed a recreation of the upcoming Bangkok hotel’s bar, to be called Wagon-Bar, with a marquetry edged counter framed by shelves of Champagne bottles and woven-bulrush lanterns to be featured in all future Orient Express hotels. The lettering of the bar’s name is the same as that on the outside of the original train cars.

De Saint Lager notes that hotels will be placed in sites in Europe, North America, Asia, and the Middle East and will combine the overall Orient Express theme with destination-specific touches. For instance, individual decorations may reflect the characteristics of a given city, but the uniforms of hotel staff (called “conductors”) and the music will be standardized.

“It’s difficult because everybody has a different idea of the Orient Express,” De Saint Lager says of living up to the public’s imagination of the grandeur. “We have to refer to the history and never break the link. That’s where we get the authenticity of what we do.”

Abu Dhabi: When the going gets tough, the tough get going. This was proven by a group that I am a part of called the “Our Irinjalakuda”, a Facebook group based out of Irinjalakuda in Thrissur, India.

During the recent Kerala floods, the group with around 60,000 members and about 200 active volunteers formed a team and got to work. None of them were experienced or experts in disaster management. But, they lead, took orders, guided and acted forgetting their caste, creed, political party or ideologies.

The momentum they generated to coordinate this activity triggered and transformed to the group’s first relief support operation in the Alappuzha district, which was one of the heavily affected areas.

A small team left with a pickup truck, loaded with essential food and medicine supplies, to personally distribute to and support those in need. However, they didn’t know what was in store for them over the next few days.

All the dams and rivers started overflowing and the water level started increasing. As the paddy fields got flooded, the bridges and roads started collapsing and transportation became absolutely impossible.

Temporary disaster control centres were quickly formed. Members took different lead roles and were supported by local students. The effective use of WhatsApp and Facebook came to prominence at this point when electricity was cut and there was no radio or disaster management communication systems in place.

Jithesh Ambady, one of the members of the group, created a support group on WhatsApp, which became the lifeline of supplies for not only Thrissur district, but also to all the badly affected areas in Kerala.

He told Gulf News: “My mother and sister’s family are all witnesses and victims of this natural disaster. I was able to understand from them, the critical moments of seeing death passing right in front you. If I was able to do anything about it, it was all because of the good friendships I have. With the small time frame that we had, whatever we were able to do for the needy is the result of the priceless relationships we hold.”

He efficiently utilised the public transport buses. With the support from their staff, they transported essential medicines and food supply in the initial stages and later cleaning aids.

Dr Rose Anto, another member of the group, said: “The relief efforts taught us many things, but most importantly that humans should be interdependent and must keep an eye on social causes, always. If united we are strong.”

Those who were stuck outside of the town as well many non-resident Indians sprung into action, coordinating these activities by keeping vigil at night when those on ground took an hour or two for rest and regrouping.

The youth came up with several ideas and collaborated with the government authorities in the rebuild process. Teams were formed and spread out to each village and carried out cleaning operations and relief support.

Before the government system started their action, this relief group thought well ahead and sourced items for cleaning, disinfecting and also formed small teams to support restoration of water and electricity.

The team also started to clean the affected homes and scan them thoroughly for snakes or other reptiles. They worked in coordination with Snake Wild Animal Rescue Association (Swara).

All these activities were systematically done keeping the local authorities informed and taking them along to oversee, so that there is absolutely no fund or material mismanagement.

The disaster management outlined above is just one example. There are several other groups from all parts of Kerala that deserve merit. At the end of the day, everyone was united, stood together and worked their way around during those extremely difficult days. All are heroes and they proved that working together works.

As the government works on the rebuilding process, questions are in plenty from the general public on how we can cut costs and function efficiently. The government could introduce a mandatory and major cut on the allowances for ministers and support staff and reduce their numbers.

Apart from that, there are several commissions and bodies, which are consuming enormous funds from the government. Why not dissolve them once and for all and save costs?

There are also a large number of advisors for several ministers who are pampered with huge payment and government facilities. Why not reduce them and let the government come out with an open online portal for public to provide free and professional advice?

Each government minister and all higher authorities are luxuriously pampered with at least one or two police escort cars and personnel when they move around. Why don’t we implement a permanent stop to this?

All the above questions, if answered, could lead to quicker rebuilding of our beautiful Kerala.
