Used Cars Thailand What does it mean when the ad says Red Tag Label or Red Label Price?

[Thomas J]

I see numerous ads for used cars that reference Red Tag or Red Label price.  It is different than what the price that at least they are posting as the for sale price for the car.  What exactly does the Red Tag or Red Label Price mean? 

[Hi Tea]

Never heard of those price references.  On which website do you see these ads, any examples?

Hi Tea,

 

Some refer to Red Label condition, Red Label Car.  The last one has Special Price and Red Label Price

Steve187 I don't know either,  That is why I asked.  I think maybe it is total price, It also may be the original sticker price.  But I see it repeatedly in terms of both the condition of cars and in terms of price.

No idea but I do like the ad for the GS

 

” Running for 2.3 hundred thousand kilograms “

” Never got gas “ !!

 

What in Buddhas name do they run that thing on ??

Red plate price is price when new, given as a comparison. Never run on gas means never run on LPG/CNG etc - i.e. run on gasoline only.  LPG etc burns hot and clean without leaving any ash deposits on the seating faces of the valves. This allows microwelding to occur as the valves open and close and results in metal transfer. The upshot is accelerated wear of the valve seats. Hence a car never run on gaseous fuels should be in better condition.

Thanks, I had someone else say Red Label condition means no flood, no crash etc.  But what you say about Red Label price makes sense.  I did not know about the LPG but that also makes sense.,  Thank You.

Yes, red plate condition = as new condition.

Red plate price = price when new.
