In theory yes. But how many times people get denied entry because of too many visa exempt entries.... ?

I saw this one at the current Motorshow. Geely Geome Xingjuan (Starwish) No price announced yet, but could be under 400k THB. Interesting car for city use but with full size and specs (definitely not a microcar). However, the motor, battery and top speed is much lower than his competitors BYD Dolphin and Aion UT. Regarding Aion UT, I think it's a fantastic car. The higher trim version comes with every possible gimmick and has a whopping 238 HP. For my situation (we are only two person household), I would buy it instantly if we wouldn't have the MG 4 already.

But currently MG 4 is like that

The reason why I'm asking, I'm currently staying in Thailand on my first VE 60 days arrival by air and I'm leaving for honeymoon to China. Flight would be DMK - KMG - DMK. On the same arrival day I have my outbound flight from BKK back home and will be returning to Thailand a week later. I'm afraid I might have too many VE in a short time. So basically I would stay on Thai soil for less than twelve hours, only to transfer between DMK and BKK. For this I don't want to "waste" another VE by air. Is there any transit VE stamp that I can request from the IO that allows me to stay, let's say 12 hours in Thailand?

My bad. This is obviously new model naming policy from MG starting 2025. No longer the "old" X model. Probably because of confusion with X-Power. Still would go for the V model. Blind Spot assist saved me many times from collisions, mostly with crazy motorcycles. ELK is annoying for every day driving, agree. MG dealer told us there'll be a software update where ELK is disabled from the start and you have to switch it on. One pedal system. No idea what is the difference to the current system. Since driving my MG I have set KERS to level 3 and it is literally one pedal drive already. I rarely use the brakes.

Sorry, I was talking about the D model from around 2023/24. They seem to have made some changes in the naming (see recent post from KhunLA). What used to be the X model, is now D and V. Four wheel drive still X-Power.

Nothing will happen. I bet 1,000 THB

Agreed 👍🏻 ELK is annoying for most daily driving but quite useful on the motorway and expressway in conjunction with adaptive cruise control ACC. It's almost like self driving mode from Tesla autopilot

I think you are confused between X model and X power. Besides that, the features that you mentioned are more than useful and standard on any other EV. So, for me it's a no brainer to spend little extra money to go for the X model

I don't know about the MG ZS, but neither the MG4 D nor X model have a sunroof. But the D model literally has no driver assistance systems, parking cameras and a smaller screen.

The D model is really low spec. Wouldn't want to have it when buying a new car...

They'll never learn....

I'll take that anytime over the cheapo Neta cars.

SAIC presents new version of MG4 in 2025 https://carnewschina.com/2025/03/20/new-mg4-ev-revealed-officially-as-the-brands-first-global-model-for-2025/

I used 1st Class Visa from Pattaya. Everything worked out fine.

I'm sure some time in the local jail would knock some sense into him

Wouldn't it be the job of the police to ensure these orders are followed? Issue fines and collecting them, temporary detention, dispossession of his dogs to a shelter. Why it has become such a drama now. Reaching until immigration is involved....

Someone probably made a fortune by selling these lights as street lights. How are they supposed to direct light to the ground? It's just a light bulb with no reflector. That's why there are so many. Anyway, not my money.... But surely worth an investigation

ขอใบเสนอราคาแผ่นพื้นคอนกรีต Baan Rai Yarm Yen I always go there and recommend to others when being in Chiang Mai. Full of Thais and rarely a foreigner in sight. Sometimes it can be a bit hectic and chaotic with dishes being delayed or forgotten. But the quality of the food is excellent.

Why October?

Yes. We extended it for free at the dealer. MG came up with this approximately two months after we purchased the car

Do yourself the favour and don't buy the D model. Apart from being ugly because of the missing rear spoiler and led lights, you would get a car with literally no extras that every new car has since 10 years. In my opinion (I own a MG4 X model 2024), the upgrade was worth every single baht

There's no way one little jar of cannabis is worth those quoted 6,000 THB from the shop owner. Maybe more likely 500 THB. That's why the cops don't investigate. Wouldn't be different in any other country. Damage to small, case closed

It'll only get worse from now. Both for Mukdahan and Savannahkhet

Savannahkhet is an absolute <deleted> hole. There's nothing to do there. The only positive take away was strolling along the river promenade and an excellent banh mi shop at the big market at the edge of the town. I was really happy leaving it after two days.
