Those tricks have been standard since Noah was a lad, for many 2nd hand car dealers in the UK.
As a former uk motor trader I never clocked a car.
I'd like to have Lady Roadrunner clocked though.... anyone know how?

They may possibly accept a letter from the UK Revenue stating that you are not required to pay tax on it. However, an article I read by a 'Tax Accountant' in Thailand suggested that the Double Taxation Agreement between the UK and Thailand did not include such matters and that tax would be payable on pension income that was over the Thai tax threshold.
It won't be payable because we won't be here! Goodbye Thailand.

All it takes is for the Thais to require a tax clearance certificate to obtain your visa. Plus all incoming bank transfers could be taxed. In which case we are all out of here. For sure the Thais will make up the rules to suit themselves. For sure the rules will be totally devoid of any common sense and poorly thought out in true Thai fashion.
I wait to see exactly what they are going to do.

As if we needed to be reminded of how tenuous our position is here. The Thais can change the rules and do what they like. If they do this the new rules will be typically well thought out in true Thai manner. Total chaos and a lot of departing farang will result, taking our money with us. Does anyone remember the dreaded tax clearance certificate that one had to obtain from the Thai tax dept before immigration would allow us out of the country. Cambodia begins to look more appealing.

You cannot test drive at Auctions before buying. So problems with the car's transmission or alignment due to accident cannot be checked. Read the rules before buying. Take a real expert with you.

Cheapest known brand name is usually Dunlop. I just bought a set of Kumho (Cum Hoe) which are made in Korea. Cheap and good quality.

Kumho, from Korea, are not so well known but even cheaper and very good.

Problem I have with both Shopee and Lazada is they don't allow you to open the package before paying COD.
You can almost get in a fight with some of the delivery boys.
Often the package does not contain the correct item, or it does not stand up to comparison with the advertised photo.

Roadrunner is looking for a Leather trim shop in Bangkok that can reupholster my car's interior.
Most Thai shops use Pig skin. I need Cow skin or Napa and possibly Alcantara.
Thanks

Looking at the comments.... what did I start here?!
Roadrunner is ex uk car trade and so not worried about Jags being high maintenance. Yes a Toyota may be reliable, but who wants one? Driving a Japanese car is a bit like running my nails down a blackboard. Arrrggghhhh!
Nothing has the feel, soul and character of a Jag. Let me enjoy before we are all forced to buy an electric car.

If you are going to make a capital investment in Thailand you should employ a lawyer to check all documentation etc before you sign. A few thousand baht is a small amount for lawyers fees compared to you investment. This applies to many countries throughout the world.
There have been too many cases of the Thai lawyer taking his client's money and yet never checking the property's papers.

Why don't you peruse the Amazon Global Shipping options for laptops. I've had many laptops sent from Amazon with no problem.
You might have to buy new but you'll get a better warranty and there not much more than refurbished.
Anything better than buying overpriced and underpowered laptops in Thailand.
What about Thai import tax? Did they ship by courier or post office? Courier into Thailand is known for getting hit by customs.

Main problem here is that Turbo bearings are titanium. Ordinary steel won't last. And what type of bearing do the Thais fit?.......

Try a different land transport office.... they vary greatly. You can use any office for road tax. I have in the past changed ownership and road taxed a car with a colour change.

What happens if you need to bring in a large sum, such as 20 million Baht to buy a house in Thailand?
And just how will they enforce this new tax?
