August 22, 20196 yr Nice thread, following. Some cool stuff on Expat Car Club (FB) for classics spotted around the country, project cars, motor head discussion, etc. https://www.facebook.com/groups/896773410671489/
August 22, 20196 yr The Merc is (obviously) a home-made job. I think it's an early 80s CE. Ratchapruek Road, Maha Sawat area. When I said it's my favourite, I hope y'all understand! ????

I don't think any of them have seen road traffic in quite some time. My wife's friend owns that resort and a smaller hotel in Amphur Muang Loei. She did well for a small town girl. ????

She did very well... it's a beautiful resort with well laid out facilities and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The water pressure in the shower was the best I have experienced anywhere in Thailand. And the breakfast was huge! A good way to start the day. A big thumbsup from me for the Chiangkhan River Mountain Resort in Loei.

August 25, 20196 yr Absolutely love those cars. My brother has R model , 265 HP. Every time I go home and drive it puts a smile on my face. Angry little beast. I’ve often thought about one of these, 2010/11 models for ~ 1M.Tearing up the body work concerns me on some of the roads here.Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app
September 5, 20196 yr Popular Post Jaguar XJ220. There is around 2-3 in Thailand. The one in the pictures gets driven on a weekly basis around Bangkok.
September 5, 20196 yr Popular Post I spotted this yard on a motor bike ride from Pattaya to Chonburi buffalo races. Spent about 40mins with a very proud Thai guy who didn't speak a lick of English but we communicated on some level.

My chum bought a V8 Ferrari for 25,000 whilst there...

A top end sports car reduced to poodling around Bangkok . Crying out for the autobahn but just crawling up Sukhumvit in 1st gear. Understandable though. The road from Rangsit to Saraburi is really rough and would probably damage the skirts. Not worth the risk. Route 7 to Pattaya probably ok though.

September 9, 20196 yr Popular Post Ok , the headline is unusual cars seen . Maybe others have seen plenty of these about but this is the only one I have seen up here in my town. A Toyota Crown Majestica , Mk 2 '95 - 99. Don't know the owner and don't know if it is the 3 litre or 4 litre V8. Would swap my Vios for it.

There is a huge classic car scene here with BMW groups, Alfa groups etc. You get to meet some really cool Thai guys through this type of social club. I wonder how much that would cost?

Route 7 to Pattaya probably ok though. the owners takes it for coffee around the city on weekends and night driving along the highways ... sure beats being kept in the garage and rotting away. Don't think any sane person would have that as a daily car for getting to work. Roads in bangkok isn't too bad for the most parts, just got to choose which roads to take. Those frequent by 10 wheels are brutal for these sports cars.
