Yes, seen many foreigners like that, not just Thai's, met one foreigner, if you followed his fb he was living like a king, turned out he, his wife, two kids were living in a one bedroom (inc toilet) room. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the Thai wives I know love the lottery as married women they need some excitement in their lives and winning would provide them with sufficient funds to leave hubby.

Popular Post TheFishman1 Posted September 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2020 Instead of posting this <deleted> why don’t you just go to the dealership and ask them how you should do it really you need advice about buying your white from Mercedes bands come on bro get real 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katipo Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 In honesty, I am not aware of the specifics. If you drive up in your BMW and outline to the Sales Manager what you want to achieve, I am sure they will figure out a way to make it happen. From what I have heard, Mercedes dealerships can be very accommodating to their (potential) customers. Perhaps make sure you talk to someone senior, and who is comfortable conversing in English.

Popular Post 2 is 1 Posted September 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) Many of us has build or buy our wife's a house! That is commitment to her and Thailand ! Don't know if you have done that. But anyway if you are millionaire and that kind "gift" is normal to you go for it! To me (ok im not millionaire) if woman not be satisfied for normal "gift" like gold necklace , it's time to watch in mirror! Thought is most important (to my wife anyway) , if cant do that whitout huge load of money , question is what your wife love's? Maybe you are conceited and want show people your sht! Even your txt here little show that. Every man whit much money know how haddle they things in they own! Don't need ask question from TV people whit that kind matter. Only go in dealer and haddle it!

Popular Post BTB1977 Posted September 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2020 I surprised my wife with a 25 million baht penthouse just last week. She had no idea.

Hi Tea Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) On 9/8/2020 at 11:26 AM, Jenkins9039 said: Have you seen how un-smooth the roads are? or the potholes? Ferraris, need pristine road conditions, unless every journey you wish to be doing a claim against the insurance for the front and wheels. A lot of Ferarri owners in Thailand would disagree with that generalism. Ferarris do not "need pristine road conditions" anymore than many other cars do, they're all designed for road use and they all move about on those wheels that you seem to think is such a big problem.
