I think Google destroyed it. Google now like specific websites for specific countries. Turning it into a multi country website diluted all the ranking "juice" it had. Big mistake,. This forum is a shadow of its former self

It seems that Asean Now is nowhere near as busy as Thaivisa was? Was this rebranding a huge mistake? It seems there are very few contributors these days.

I remember learning that there is a age limit on getting first class insurance on a vehicle I think its 15 years? If i buy a car 14 years old can i keep the insurance going or does it become uninsurable (for first class) after a year? Otherwise what is the best insurance option for me?

Getting a temporary residence certificate to sell a car in phuket
CrossBones replied to CrossBones's topic in Phuket
or can i use a residence certificate issued in chiang mai to sell a car in Phuket? Maybe i go back to chiang mai where i can get one instantly. -
I am staying in Phuket (have been living in chaing mai in past) What do i need to get a residence certificate to sell my car in Phuket? In Chiang mai we dont need residence certificate to sell a car, only buy a car. Someone said i need a departure card, but i didnt get arrival/departure card when i entered Thailand as they seem to have stopped them temporarily now. Also i am staying wtih my girlfriend in Phuket in a condo she rents in her name. What do i do? Are there any visa agents i can just give my passport to for they take care of everything without signed documents from landlords etc. Thank you

Is there a rule such as used cars over 5-10 years old cant be sold by some/most/all finance companies in Thailand? There seems to be a lack of second hand finance available

Haha I need to send it there for some work to be done to it. Ill have to drive it back here as well. I dont want to do the trip twice. If there was a transporter company charging 10k or similar to send it i would do it. Possibly send it back as well

Petrol vs Diesel NGV vs LPG Running cost (2022)
CrossBones replied to CrossBones's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Most of the refridgeration trucks seem to use LPG. Im guessing its because they are left idling for extended periods of time even when not moving to run the cooling system -
Petrol vs Diesel NGV vs LPG Running cost (2022)
CrossBones replied to CrossBones's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Over 24 hours the surface area of a camper covered in solar panels would collect enough power to power an AC for 3-4 hours . Also the cost of a (safe) lithium battery pack to store that much power costs 120,000 baht.. Also you would have to park in direct sun, which is counter productive. I think its going to be far cheaper to recondition an engine than go for a solar system or external generator. -
Petrol vs Diesel NGV vs LPG Running cost (2022)
CrossBones replied to CrossBones's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Modern vehicles dont have a carbon monoxide problem generally. Especially LPG. Of course you must have a carbon monoxide alarm The cost of a 2kw chinese generator of reasonable quality is about 30k baht The cost of a reconditioned truck engine is about 40k baht. My reasoning is that a reconditioned truck engine will last a lot longer idling than a chinese generator will (and probably post much less of a fire/pollution/toxic fume problem) -
Petrol vs Diesel NGV vs LPG Running cost (2022)
CrossBones replied to CrossBones's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Actually i want to build a campervan. LPG or NVG is interesting because the engine can be run all night (to power the air conditioning) without producing carbon monoxide. Its more quiet than diesel. I need to use it to run air conditioning all night, so basically it will be run idling for very long periods of time. It wont be carring very heavy loads, perhaps 250kg load. It wont be used everyday.
