Moving to Abu Dhabi

[menguin]

Hello Pistonheaders of the Middle East!

I'm currently living in Mauritius and have done for a while. I have the opportunity to move to Abu Dhabi. I'd like to have some opinions on the place - what is it like living there?

What is there to do?
What is the cost of living?
What's the expat community like - size, etc?
Any tax on anything - cars?
What about alcohol?

What would you say are the biggest negatives & positives about the place?

For those of you that live there, would you move back to Blighty for the same salary?

Thanks in advance!
