Ford Focus RS Turbo. Unsure if the stick-shift version was available in Thailand, or if it was only manual shifting of an automatic box.

There's a Nissan Skyline for sale in Chiang Mai. Recently rebuilt. Was a runner when I saw it before the rebuild. Seeing it was my only input and I'm not involved with the company. I followed a transporter for over 150km just to have a look when the driver finally took a comfort stop. There were two transporters carrying a total of 8 vehicles. The Skyline and an M3 caught my attention, but I remember a Testerosa and a 911 among what was being transported. Driver said they sometimes made as many as two runs a month.. Gave me a card which I've misplaced, but the company shouldn't be hard to track down. All I remember is they're based in Chiang Mai. They're serious folks that made good offers for my Camaro. No sale!

I don't live in Bangkok, yet all my vehicles are registered there. With the exemption of one bike which is registered in Nakhon Sawan. I don't live there either, but they had the number I wanted at the time of registration. Registration and Transfer is a centralized system and has been for some time, Your trip to immigration is most likely to verify your change of address.

Have a 250 gallon bowser for deisel and twenty jerry cans of V-Power gasoline. All full, because it's 20 km to the nearest gas station and 42 km to the nearest Shell station and I use nothing else. Purchased another twenty jerry cans today which will be full tonorrow, along with every fuel tank on each vehicle I own. Probably use 5 gallons to clean out the new cans.

Read that the Bronco Widtrak was was rated at 400BHP with 3 litre V6 with the Wildtrack Raptor being a 2.7l V6 at a lower power. and torque. Also read that the final specs have yet to be finalized. Have driven a current Wildtrack Raptor with the quoted 10 speed box and wasn't favorably impressed. Gear changing up and down more frequently than a bar girls knickers (if she wore them at all}. With the knickers completely in the wrong position at your time of need. Hope the Bronco comes here. Would be a worthy competitor to the Land Rover and would't go rusty in a desert,
