coops Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 My Christmas day purchase of a Mazda 3 2L hatchback cost ~1million baht a few years ago. A New Toyota Camry 2.4 would be ~ 1.5million or 1.6 with the ventilated air con front seat,mmmm A very good little car is the Honda Jazz, new roundabout 800k for top model - maybe less? But of you're not here, or it's not with your 'partner' or a good friend - not so sure whether it makes sense.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dullnight Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 renting a car sure sounds a more economical and practical option, if the "help a friend" factor is not too inportant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persil Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 >A very good little car is the Honda Jazz, new roundabout 800k for top model - maybe less?< Top model 695000. just got mine, very happy with it. Living here, did the sums, cheaper then renting. And, a very nice car, comfortable, economical, and roomy, plus plenty of power for my needs. A drastic change from the Mitsi 4WD pick up I drove last year in Laos, but roads here are so much better, and a small car is really handy in town traffic.

CTO Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 But can you carry cases of Beer Laos in it - inquiring minds need to know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian2 Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 Another reason not to buy if you're here for the short haul. Yesterday's shopping expedition started with a 3300 baht purchase of a new car battery before I even got out the garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dullnight Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Rented a car this week end (Toyota Fortuner 2750BHT per day with unlimited kms and house delivery) and actualy drove for the first time ever in Thailand. Had a great time, and felt immediately at ease with the locals driving style :thumbup: Along the way through the eastern coast I also discovered the russian Hostess club in Pattaya and that otherwise family oriented seaside resort just went up a lots of spots on my favourite week end destination list... now the question is : can one use the capital of a thai registered company to buy a car ?
