  2. £144,000 as opposed to a check £100 ish insurance policy, and on top of that riding a motorcycle on Koh Samui, death island for bike riders
  3. trying to get your post score up, its not a derogatory remark, but could be for the right person, as posted get a few more years under your belt to fully understand the ins and outs of Thailand, hust take it in your stride
  4. Thanks for the listing of these Mainly new restaurant's
  5. UK targets are - 2024: 22% of new car sales and 10% of new van sales must be zero-emission 2030: 80% of new car sales and 70% of new van sales must be zero-emission 2035: 100% of new car sales and van sales must be zero-emission which refer to zero emission vehicles, not just EV's, so this would impact on Thailand's vehicle production numbers of ICE vehicles United Kingdom Imports from Thailand of Motor cars and vehicles for transporting persons, was US$55.48 Million during 2023
  6. round table still going strong
  7. maybe not paid for but taken delivery of. as shown by the figures, unless Thailand ups their game on the vehicles that are required by todays market they will go the same route as the British car industry, don't forget that ice vehicles are being phased out
  8. although lots of Thai's driving around in million + cars both ev and ice
  9. old head thinking, Chinese are the number one supplier of EV, the Japonese have been left behind and are paying the price with many dealers closing
  10. not many Thais on here, I spent 160,000thb, for a 5kw system with 11.5kw of battery, that's reduces my monthly bill to next to nothing, last full year i produced 5mwh, at 10thb a unit that's 50,000thb,( see tropicalevo's post) even at the normal 5thb its still a good saving and good for the planet.
  11. go solar at 10thb per unit you would be silly not too.
  12. you choose some pricy food there
  13. what would you choose it for
  14. would it not be best for wife to make her own tax return, I understand that she could claim 60k allowance and the first 150k being tax free. does she pay any tax at present, does she work for a company
  15. no i liked it too. and never been to Texas
  16. 'big cat' insurance is one but there are others
  17. lots of branches most shopping malls and the like
  18. zs 2022 model with cvt, 30,000km now still good to drive, no faults, about 14kpl, a little bit more on a long toll road (7 road to Bangkok), next service in April will have to pay labour, the only small niggle was the heat coming through the sunroof, but added some insulation which sorted it
  19. people on tourist or visa exempt entry, often what to do a conversion to a proper long term visa ie non immigrant and then a yearly extension, but in order to do the conversion they require money in a Thai bank account
  20. The UK government has allocated over £117 million to protect mosques, Muslim schools, and community centers from hate attacks. This funding will be used for CCTV, alarms, and fencing. - https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-68529601
  21. oil should be 0w20, if its going down, then it is going somewhere, if no visible signs then its being burnt in the engine, or going in the coolant
  22. i was under the impression you could buy multiply breakdown coverage from them, use one buy another,
  23. don't overthink the tax angle, get the visa/visa exempt option that's good for your plans
  24. I think you are correct if Japan don't get their finger out they will become obsolete, like they did to the UK car manufactures, whatever your views are on Chinese manufactures, they are well ahead of any competition in the EV market
