What *exactly* is in question?

Read the OP and subsequent comments.

The Chinese MG is like a lot of bought up famous brand names, to make folk think it was a totally British car, when in fact it ain't. They even have the front to put a union jack on the back.

MG's are not produced in the UK, mainly China, it seems..

The MG Extender is a Chinese pickup with an MG badge..

You want an MG, then you are buying Chinese, not a British performance ride.

Not one person on this thread has suggested otherwise yet you continue to bang on about it's being Chinese.

1kg of 58% or 70% Dark Chocolate coins is about 400TH...

 

No more overpriced 100g bars of fine chocolate from the grocery stores!

He may be disappointed.  The OP is used to paying less than B160 per kilo for his European chocolate so B400 per kilo of baking chocolate (which tastes nothing like 'normal' chocolate) is hardly a bargain for him.

my old bills were at the

price of 2.52 bahts\unit but the last month for the first time it was

a jump to 3,25 by unit, an increase of near 40 %

That's nowhere near 40%, it's less than a 29% increase. 

Are you sure that you've only got 2 girls there?  You're maths isn't that good, maybe you've miscounted!

So what happened to the "someone" who tried to bribe them... or did they just say no thanks and let them walk away?

Perhaps she's the one who's in custody.

700k divorce settlement would have been cheaper than the 2M bribe.

Just saying.

Not if the car that was part of the settlement was worth B1.3m plus.

This new bill will change everything for Thai's and Farang here in Thailand, in so many ways. So here is what is happening, so read!

 

https://thethaiger.com/medical/thailand-may-ease-up-on-medical-cannabis-restrictions

Read the original, full link that The Thaiger got this from.  This only applies to those with medical requirements so it looks as though it won't change much, for most, in any way at all.

A friend stuck in UK for an indefinite time is worried about his account. He was told no activity on his account for six months and his account will be closed. I read 10 years on T and C on bank website. Anyone have any further info.?

Just call them to ask, they do speak English.

MG 3, 5 or ZS should be considered.

I know it this post will attract a sad confused tag from Transam but I agree.

Don't worry about it, just humour the old man, it's the most sympathetic thing to do!

Currently you cannot drive a vehicle into Thailand how ever to bring it in by sea...

Those regulations are not just for cars being shipped in.

.............out of contention........"Ming Guang" cars....????

Apparently not, it seems that you're wrong there, also...

"Thank you all for your replies.  I forgot to include the MG at 799,000"

You'll have to translate that for those less sophisticated than you, if you don't mind.

Where's the MG made? Certainly not at Morris Garages in England!    PML

China..

...just like so many other makes and all built to the standards required by the countries in which they're sold.

Thinking of the virus and good deals I think there would be new 2019 models that hadn't sold yet.. should be a good discount on them... maybe..

Most of those shops fit the parts as well, that's the alleged offence, making the modifications.

Is the modification illegal or usage on public roads? Why wouldn't it be perfectly fine to make a modification and then use the vehicle on a racetrack?

None of those in question are being used on racetracks!

The police have been going around to the motorcycle repair shops that sell the aftermarket exhaust and say not to sell them anymore.

On what legal basis would they do that? It is not illegal to sell these afaik.

It's for any foreigners, it's not exclusively for farangs.

All foreigners are referred to as farangs

No, they're not.  Japanese "farangs"?  Chinese "farangs"?  Korean "farangs"?  Malaysian "farangs"?  Indonesian "farangs"?  African "farangs"?  Indian "farangs"?  Middle Eastern "farangs"?

Amazing how easy it is for people in Thailand to change their name, usually because they are guilty of something. No questions asked.

It's easy in most countries, no questions asked there, either.
