  1. Where's the actual link and who wrote it? However, that is not my question. I want to know where I need to go to change ownership but keep the registration number.
  2. That's obviously not true unless it's changed within the last year since I bought my last one.
  3. Well you will be wrong. I took it myself to the local (Pranburi) office to tax it myself as the agent wanted a lot of cash to do it even though my name was in the book. Pranburi office told me the same, I couldn't tax it there, I had to go to PKK and change the number.
  4. Background : I live in Hua Hin, Prachuap Khiri Khan and I have bought 3 cars, all from Bangkok and each one has been dealt differently by the DLT. First one I sent the owner my paperwork, visa copies etc and he delivered the car to me with my name in the book. When I went to the local agent for test and tax they said it can't be taxed here, you have to take it to the DLT in Prachuap Khiri Khan town. I did this with a cost of 5-7k I think and they gave me a new registration number. Second one I went with the dealer to the DLT in Bkk with all my documents, got my name in the book and drove home . When I went to tax it, again I was told have to go to PKK to change the registration number only at a cost of around 200 Baht only. Third one a year ago I went to the DLT where the car was registered in BKK. The lady there did ask me if I want it registered in BKK or PKK so I said PKK. When I went to the agent for test and tax I fully expected them to say I need to go to PKK and change the number but no, they can tax it, no need to change number. .So it still has the same number. Next month I am buying a new car which has a cherished number and is registered in BKK. Obviously I want to keep this number. The owner wants to drive the car to me in HH as he has family here. My question is do I need to go to the DLT where the car is registered to change ownership and keep the cherished number or can I do it here in PKK although it's registered in BKK?
  5. Scroll to the top of the page and see the orange banner. News site under maintenance.
  6. 30 days live TV and catchup is 380 Baht, don't know about the website, I guess you have to register? You can email them, very responsive and will usually give you a free trial if you ask. [email protected]
  7. Same as HD Prime but double the price
  8. Do all the above offered services include a catchup service? HDprime, 380 Baht a month, all sports, EPL, UK plus other countries TV with catchup. Used it for years now, no buffering or freezing.
  9. Buy from Lazada a stun gun zapper thing. You don't need to near the dogs, just press the button and the dogs run away from the sound and no one gets hurt
  10. Nice looking car but it's a big 4 door family sedan, not what I'm looking for thanks.
  11. As I only do a few kms a year, probably less than 5k, I am reluctant to spend a lot. if it was a good young low mileage car I could go up to 1 mill but ideally no more than 800k. I sold my Veloster for 600k as I rarely used it so I thought it a waste plus it was depreciating and only paid 225k for my one owner fsh 2012 mazda 2 sport with 82k kms.
  12. A couple on One2car now, a Turbo in white , not high mileage very cheap at 399k but someone has paid a deposit to reserve and a non turbo, one owner, only 12500 kms, with fsh to prove but 599k. The turbo is the preferred choice of everyone but a 2013 car with 12500 kms is like buying a new motor so tempting.
  13. I think your idea of a sporty coupe is way different to mine...........
  14. Nice but very old, I'm looking no more than 10 years old.
  15. But with the cost of all that I may as well buy another Veloster 600-800k Baht as it's a much nicer car.
  16. The 0-120 isn't important, its cruising comfortably after that, 120-140, as I said most of my use of the car tends to be longer journies, HH to Bkk or further. The Veloster Turbo was ideal for that.
  17. Thats a biggish SUV, not a sporty coupe !
  18. Does it have to be a diesel? Mine's a 2012 1500 cc petrol
  19. Yep, I agree 100%, I think there were more nice looking coupes 20 years ago, however, I really want the more modern tech, more comfortable drive, modern engine and all the bells and whistles. I'm starting to think another Veloster is the most viable alternative or stick with the Mazda 2 for another year.......
  20. Yep, just come to that conclusion, thanks.
  21. Agree with the Merc. Also when talking replacement cars with my mate at the weekend, I mentioned the price of the 10 year old Veloster and CR Z compared with a brand new Swift at around 570k I think it was. I actually like the style of the Swift even though I really class it as a girls car..........the basic one was underpowered for me, I will Google the turbo version , thanks. Oh, and there aren't any hills in HH or en route to BKK so the CVT will do for me.
  22. The Mazda already has factory skirts and spoilers so not sure what else one could do. A friend at the weekend also suggested tweaking the ECU. Looking at Civic RS on One2car I only see 4 door sedans, am I looking at the right model? Used Honda Civic 1.5 RS, find local dealers/sellers | One2car
  23. Nice car but a convertible is not practical in this country unless you only go out after 6 pm, I sweated in one for 3 years !! Bit out of my price range also I'm afraid, of 54 on One2car I could just about afford the cheapest but as I only do around 5k kms a year I cant justify spending more than a million. Thanks for the suggestion though.
  24. I'm looking for a used coupe but I don't know what's available. I own a Mazda 2 sport which I've had for exactly one year but it isn't at all sporty in looks or performance but it was cheap and well looked after by one owner and fsh. My previous car for 3 years was a Hyundai Veloster Turbo and before that for 3 years a Daihatsu Copen Turbo. Actually I don't use the car much as I live in Hua Hin and travel to the beach, shopping mall etc is only a few minutes drive so easier on the PCX. However, when I do use it I usually go to Bkk or Jomtien a few times a year so I do like the extra power that the Mazda doesn't provide, it's Ok up to 120 kph but a bit hard work after that. I do like the shape/style of the Veloster and also the Honda CR Z but both models at 8-10 years old are still quite expensive at 600-900 k for a decent reasonably low mileage (definitely under 100k) model. So any other models I should be looking at? Have to be more than circa 100 bhp which rules out my Mazda 2 sport and Focus/Fiesta Sports.
