The Right Visa To Buy A Car

Thanks for all your replies. The general opinion seems to be that I can buy a second hand car for cash with no permanent address on a tourist visa but the dealer will be expecting to register it for me which he can't do if I don't have proof of address. So if I can persuade him that I will register it myself at a later date then that's OK and legal with no risk to my purchase...is that about it? I wont be putting it in my girlfriend/wifes name as I don't have one. I do however have full custardy of my six year old half Thai daughter. Some of you mentioned Thai drivers licence, again do I need that in this process as I don't have one yet?

It takes the dealers 3 months to be able to register a new car so by the time he asks you for the paperwork than you should already have your visa and your home sorted.

Probably because it's not insufficient, it's perfectly acceptable to DLT.
