My FIL says he got harassed by the cops in Malaysia quite a few times driving a Thai registered car. basically the Malaysian version of the thai cops asking for tea money I guess. Has this happened to anyone here? Also, if you are given a ticket, what is the procedure?

I am considering driving there for the New Year if possible. Any advice specially applicable to this time of the year would be appreciated.

Is it possible to buy car insurance from the border ? i know you can buy third party insurance there but what about full insurance for the car ? while you are driving around malaysia for a month ?

Hi has anyone ever taken a drive into malaysia with a thai car?

just sold my car had to get letter of residency from immigration in bangkok ....but they told me to go to embassy so i did and it costs 470 baht for stat dec.if you are in pattaya they still do the letter at immigration for baht 200 did one there too just in case.this news is only 3 days old.

Following,

Me and wife want to buy a car, and let dad use it at times we are not in thailand (3/4 a year).

I want a pick up because handy for transporting goods.

Wife wants a sedan for status blabla.

Dad doesn't care.

We have a budget of 500000 max,.. so forget status i said,.... anyway,.. it will be a second hand because it has to have 4 doors and seating for at least 4, and it must have airbags and ABS.

Now i have been looking around and found some reasonably priced vehicles.

But which one to choose,...

Caba,... is a Toyota Hilux vigo double cab d4d,... (diesel engine is not to economic) about 459000 (2006)

Caba,... is a Mitsubishi Triton double cab commonrail,... (diesel too) about 499000 (2006)

Caba,... same as above but then in petrol and a little over budget (+50K)

Caba,... Chevy Colorado crew cab petrol engine, 525000 (2006)

Sedan,.. Mitsubishi Lancer new cedia for around 435000 (2005)

Sedan,.. Toyota carola altis around 480000 (2004)

Sedan,.. Toyota Vios new model around 499000 (2007-2008)

Sedan/whatever,.. Honda Jazz, petrol, around 525000 (2006)

Which car centres (BKK area) should i avoid because of bad name?

Which car centres (BKK area) should i use?

Which car would be best on economy and perhaps lpg build in?

Which cars are good for weekly travel trips to 700KM under BKK. (highway only)

Which car is cheapest in insurance?

What car is most stolen in Thailand?

I know Thaivisa offers auto insurance, but i can get a quote when i fill in data,... and i do not have a car yet so i cannot fill in the data,... (yes i am not to smart on this, so help me out please)

Ok thanks for any help/advice given.

i have a very nice ford ranger diesel 4 door great cond for sale 240.000 baht low klm auto blue not a mark on it. i just bought a new fortuner so need to sell pick up.

I have heard about these ladies that some how get gold and money from people by putting some cream on their wrists.

Well this happened to my girl friend in Sakon Nakhon yesterday in big C at 5pm.She and her friend went from big C to their car in the car park when 2 well dressed ladies asked them to come back inside to eat with them in the food court....thats all they can remember till the police tried to wake them from some kind of trance.they then realised they had their gold taken 5 baht (75,000baht)in total ,and 20.000 baht from my g/f acc,and 100,000 from her friends acc.the police showed them the cctv from big C and they saw them selves take the ladies to the ATM take money out and give to them.they dont remember any of this.the police told them these 2 ladies had done the same last week in Udon Thani same style and at big C their too.so be warned tell your ladt friends not to wear their gold out in public.they took 200,000baht in less than one hour.

OK now i know ...cheap charlie.......bloody cheap KIWI bloodger.You think it smart not to pay a thai lady ....if you can not afford to give her any money then stay in New Zealand.

You give us all a bad name.

Was reading a post about a guy who is going home not happy in thailand any more....the word PROF-FART was used.I asked what is that? but no one has answered.

So What is a PRO-FArt ?

Took me awhile to figure out what TV was and even longer for LOS.So many words used in code here.

Interesting post ....but what is a PROF-FART ?

What is a PRO-FART ?

We need to read these posts to remember not to walk around Pattaya at 2 am with gold necklace on!!!!

Full of...

extremely boring people

yes , especially the british geriatrics , they are the most boring , they are like vermin taking over pattaya.

Biggle you need to see someone about this anger you have towards the british....did you have a bad time in England in your past? Knock back from a pommy shiela.!!!

I have been to a few of these expat meetings....very interesting speakers and polite people.Not like many here on TV who tend to be twisted ,know alls,with no compassion for others,and just love to put others down.....i think its a way of making them selves feel better than every one else.but you are not.

Thanks (girlx) for the warning and advice.Sometimes we dont know the results of our idle chatter.
