Welcome back MRO did you get banned and came back in disguise

Nothing quite so dramatic I'm afraid: http://www.thaivisa....s/#entry5229584

P.S. I'll fix this list tomorrow, quite a few changes I can see I've missed

P.P.S. Who knows, I could actually get myself banned yet though - forum rules state you're not allowed to have more than one account, but <deleted> are you meant to do when any decent email server bounces TV emails back into the ether?

Oh, and that last post highlights the most expensive power upgrade in TH too...

Panmera S Hybrid (380HP @ 8.75M) to Panamera Turbo S (500HP @ 23.65M) = more than 124,000 Baht per HP

Someone looking for me?

No, MRO, but are you he, re-incarnated. I hope so.

This is just what I look like after all the backlfips I've had to do to get back on this site

As for the most expensive power upgrade, if we're talking TH market cars, the Cayenne S Hybrid vs the Cayenne S Turbo is a pretty wide gap (~10M)and not beaten by much else, due to the preferential excise taxes for Hybrids (in this case 11.1% vs 111.1%)

This post has got me thinking about hybrids... it did some quick googling and it seems the Cayenne Hybrid is only 7M? Is that right?

I couldn't find a list of all the Hybrid cars in Thailand and their prices... does such a list exist?

PS: I only started driving yesterday so sorry if I sound stupid

Well, it's a pretty short list at the moment, so here goes..

* Toyota Prius: 1.2M - 1.37M

* Toyota Camry: 1.65M - 1.87M

* Lexus CT200h: 2.19M - 2.69M

* Lexus LS600hL: 12.9M

* Lexus RX450h: 6.74M

* Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid: 6.65M

* Porsche Panamera S Hybrid: 8.75M

OK, there's so many changes/additions to this list that I hardly know where to start... and I'm sure I'll forget some

There's a really easy way to tell... Just look at the badge - if it's a "JP" grade, it comes from Japan, if it's anything else, it's Thai

Someone looking for me?

No, MRO, but are you he, re-incarnated. I hope so.

This is just what I look like after all the backlfips I've had to do to get back on this site

As for the most expensive power upgrade, if we're talking TH market cars, the Cayenne S Hybrid vs the Cayenne S Turbo is a pretty wide gap (~10M)and not beaten by much else, due to the preferential excise taxes for Hybrids (in this case 11.1% vs 111.1%)

Welcome back chum but l cannot image what you did wrong.

Ultimate truck?

For those looking for a heater, in TH you'll need to buy a truck/car with climate control... then you'll be able to survive the drive to Doi Inthanon in winter

Got a new pc, and couldn't recall the old aut-gen pw.. then found out that TV is blacklisted on our email servers, so couldn't receive any reset emails..

And then it was just matter matter of when I could be bothered creating a new email account just for this website..
