Electric Vehicles in Thailand
I hope the shop receives the parts quickly. Recently my Atto needed a replacement part...a real turn signal light assembly that was failing. By failing I mean sometimes it would not blink along with it being very dim when "trying" to blink and this also caused the turn signal indicator on the dash display to blink at "double time" which also caused the front turn signal light to blink at double time. I guess that double time blinking was the car's way of notifying the driver of a turn signal problem of some kind....take a look at the lights to see which one is messing up/burnt out. And at other times the rear turn signal would blink at the proper rate and normal brightness but 3 of the 25 or so LEDs comprising the tail light wouldn't turn on at the proper time/not in proper sequence...but this didn't cause double time blinking nor light dimming. Then other times the light assembly worked normally...an intermittent problem although it primarily settled into a routine of the 3 of 25 LEDs not turning on in the proper sequence. Anyway, it took the BYD dealership here in Bangkok almost two weeks to get the replacement tail light assembly as repair is just not swapping out a plug-in blub or LED subassembly, but replacement of entire assembly which takes about 20-30 minutes of removing some interior planning to unhook the assembly....it can't be removed totally from outside of the car. I'm still unclear as to where the replacement assembly came from...whether it was BYD China or the BYD central parts warehouse in Bangkok. One dealership I first went to with the light problem said the light assembly would have to come from China and take around a week (which usually means 2 weeks in Thai time) , but the 2nd dealership I went to and where I had it repaired said the part would come from the big BYD central parts warehouse in Bangkok. When the part finally came it it was around 10 to 14 days later (I can't remember exactly how long and I did bug them twice during those 10-14 days as why it was taking so long to get). The dealership swore it came from the central warehouse where it was in stock, but couldn't explain to me why it took so long to simply make it from one side of Bangkok where the central warehouse is to the other side of Bangkok where the dealership is. Me thinks it really had to come from some warehouse in China as the warehouse in Bangkok really didn't have it in stock....any maybe if it was not in stock at the central warehouse then the warehouse ordered it from China...the part then came to the central warehouse...and then it was sent from the warehouse to the dealership that ordered the part. I don't know what type of parts your M6 will be needing...hopefully they are all readily available in a BYD warehouse/dealership right here in Thailand....but if they need to come from China, you might be looking at a few weeks for the parts to arrive Thailand. Wishing your M6 a speedy repair. In closing, here's a quick story on another "red tag" car getting hit within a week of being brought home from the dealership. This was an in-law's new Mazda ICEV....some small compact model...this happened about 3 years ago. The new red tag car was brought home....was proudly shown-off for a week to family and friends....and then one night around 10pm the new car is parked in from the in-law's house which is around 25 meters from the road. The in-law setting in his house heard a crash that sound like it was right outside his front door...and it was indeed right outside his front door as a drunk driver had ran off the road, thru the in-law's wire fence surrounding his property, travelled 25 meters to crash into the in-law's red tag car. Actually the drunk's car ended up mounting the rear of the red tag car. Fortunately the in-law had insurance as the drunk did not. The in-law's car got repaired in about 3 weeks, but the in-law's "wife" now thought the car was "unlucky" and didn't want it anymore....about 6 months later they sold it and got another car. -

BBC with a brutal takedown of Ukrainian hopes
Correct. I will repeat the mantra. You need to be mentally ill if you think Putin is in the Kremlin thinking the Ukrainian invasion went well, lets go pick a fight with NATO now. -

Pattaya Prepares for Silent Night: Alcohol Ban Hits Tourists
And there it is, the I-live -in-the real-Thailand chestnut. I doubt it, as your understanding of local customs and traditions is sub-par at best. Imbibing liberally? I don't drink alcohol. -

Does anyone know the facts behind the Colin Vade case. He lost property valued at 65million
After hearing about the American who lost 15mill in property at Hua Hin, I have since read about the Colin Vade case. An Irish man who lost 65million. He had a lease agreement and allegedly someone forged signatures and sold his properties. Why did he end up in prison. What is the history of this case of the dodgy deal in Phuket Its sad to see his daughter looking so depressed. Is Colin out of prison now? Its the first time I heard about this case. https://www.youtube.com/@Nip4V https://www.facebook.com/JusticeForJessieThailand/
