I've used 4 different MG ZS cars (all hire cars). 3 were fine, but 1 had a problem with the charging port under the front grille. The vehicle would not accept a charge from the fast charger, so I ended up being driven 100+ miles back to the hire location in a recovery truck with the car on the back of the truck after waiting while the recovery service tried to fix the vehicle. I got back to the hire location at 2am, and not in a very good mood. Since then I have only used the same vehicles for hires where I would be staying local to the place of hire.

There are Thai, English, Irish, Scottish, Dutch and French lodges in Thailand. There is a good possibility that some members of these lodges are also members of this forum.

As mentioned above, importing used cars and motorbikes is not allowed. Yes, you could import the parts and rebuild it, but you would never be able to register the bike with the Department of Land Transport; receive an ownership book for the bike; tax or insure the bike.

I have found that the box needed to be completed or the page wouldn't submit. The required format is LetterLetterNumberNumberNumberNumberNumber (LLNNNNN) and any valid combination works. I think I used AA99999 or something like that.

I thought that, however it's really easy to find the car in a car park.

No. You will have to physically visit a bank branch with your original passport if you want to open a bank account.

Check the ink stamp in your passport has the correct date. It's very rare a mistake happens, but it has been known from time to time.

That's fair point. Does that apply even when there are just a few days left on the extension? What if the OP leaves on the last day of his extension?

If you: 1. Have an extension if stay (obtained from immigration in Thailand), and 2. You do not have a re-entry permit 3. When you leave Thailand your extension is automatically cancelled Most people do not want that to happen, however in your case this sequence of events would suit your purpose. The immigration official stamping you out might try and tell you that you do not have a re-entry permit out of courtesy, but tell them you understand. Or they may say nothing at all. If you time your exit with the work permit cancellation you won't have to go to immigration and pay 1,900 baht either.

Do you have a valid re-entry permit?

When you receive a forum warning, the warning nearly always comes with 1 point. For nearly all warnings, these points remain active for 3 years. If a member accumulates enough warning points within a prescribed period then the moderating team may discuss whether or not that member should remain a forum member or be permanently excluded from the forum. Permanent exclusions are rare.

We have all read the stories of tourists who have accidents on rented motorbikes. Drunk/no helmet/no driving license, etc.
