What are you driving?

I got my hands on a Fiat that my company had acquired for doing a media deal for this auto company. It just stays in a parking lot but on the weekend I can take it out for side trips—pretty cool.

If I had a choice of owing my own car (not being a super expensive, etc car) I would probably consider the Honda CRV or something as fun.

I have an old (1977) Mercedes 300D (W123). Thing just keeps going, has done about 600,000km and feels like it will do it again. Brilliant cars, comfortable, solid and not expensive to repair when needed. Would recommend these cars to everyone!

i drive a vigo , but i like to think i am driving a bentley continental gt.

delusion comes easy to me.

Drive a Camry 2003.Bought it 1,5 years ago.Good rebate on new price.Smooth,comfortable,not noisy and can go fast when needed.4 airbags too.Just what I need here

A Ferrari 430 would be perfect too (not whith the same qualities but has a lot of other ones

I take possession of my brand new black Camry 2.4V next week. Can't wait.

i drive a fortuner 2.7 petrol the wife drives a sportrider 3.0 deisel ,if i had a choice of any car it would be a fortuner lovely drive .......

That was the saddest part of leaving Switzerland and moving to Thailand. I had to sell all my cars there.

For everyday drive I had an AUDI RS6 Avant (with ABT Chip tuning for 510 HP)

My wife had an AUDI S6 (also Avant)

And for the fun, we had a Maserati 3200 GT

Now here in Thailand we have a small Honda Jazz VTec and if the whole family goes on a longer trip, a Volvo XC90

My dream car would be the new AUDI RS6 with the Lamborghini V10 turbo-charged, but here they don't even import the A6 Avant quattro with the 3.0 TDI. Sad sad world.

OK, among cars actually seen in Thailand, well why not an SLK 55 AMG, and when I stop dreaming, what about a Toyota Camry with the 3.5 liter engine?

I drive an Isuzu but would love to own a Fortuner one day.

I drive a two door 1998 Saab 900 SE, with the "Draken" body kit that is peculiar to the Thai market. They call its a Super Draken here.

I know, I know its an Astra but its a 2.0l high pressure turbo charged Astra and its looks a fair bit nicer too (well I think so anyway) imho

Here's someone else's

Ford Escape

Great for Thailand. Big enough for 5 easily, but on a nice tight platform and not overstretched so it maneuvers in bkk easily - and is 4X4 so handles the back country well also.

Do you have a jatukam?

Mazda Astina

In Bangkok my wife and I drive a Mercedes 2004 S280 and a Mercedes 2005 SLK 200.

Do you have a jatukam?

it was too unreliable , so i sold it and got the vigo !

I own a Ford Escape, a Ford Ranger and a Honda Wave.

I used to drive the Escape all the time. Loved it. Well priced in comparison to other stuff and drives nice and tight. Then the wife hired a driver and it seemed to relegate me overnight to the Ranger. Now, my business partner has claimed the Ranger so i was relegated to the Wave. Father-in-law in town this week and claimed the Wave so i found myself relegated to my Nikes.

Ill buy myself a small saloon, probably a used Nissan Sunny NEO next month and hide the keys for it. Ive driven one before and it felt much more expensive than they actually are, plus a good friend of mine drives one and claims after-sales service is excellent.

I drive a SAAB 93, don't really have a dream car though. Just gets you from A to B.

I just recently bought this Hi-lux, no real modifications,,, just de-badged it,,added new chrome grills, and nudge/roll bars.

Can anyone recomend where I can get some rims from in the land of smiles....?

You have very good taste in cars, i also had most of the quattros from 82 including a 600 hp ex rally short wheel base car, my favourie was my 1989/90 quattro 20 valve UR that audi only made for 18 months, it was 35000 pounds in 89 !,.this is already a collectors car,.but its horses for courses and like most in thailand now drive a 4x4 ,maybe when the roads are finished ill buy something sporty ! but by then it wil probably be a wheelchair !

Thanks I will take a look.

Sorry a bit too bling for me.. Thanks anyway.

Hey I just dont have the money you guys have, so I will make do with this.

And my Frontier of course.

Fortuner.

I drive an early 80's Toyota Corona. This thing burns more gas than the space shuttle and weighs a ton, but it gets us from A to B no problem. Just had the air compressor replaced. No power steering so tight spaces can be a bit of a nightmare. However they don't make cars like they used to...this thing feels solid and the layout is so simple (stick shift, no fuel injectors, fancy computer chips, etc) that any mechanic could work on it. Many of today's cars are built like tin cans and are full of complex systems that only trained specialists can work on (the Commonrail fuel injection system being an example).

As for a dream car, I would be happy with a good, reliable pickup that can negotiate flooded streets without much trouble. Perhaps a Mitsubishi Triton or Isuzu D-Max would be good. The diesel engines coupled with a stick shift would run trouble free for years.

Mitsubishi L200 off the last production run 2004 - Jap Spec not the Thai Strada thing with stickers all over it!

I love the car and always have when I lived in the UK I fancied one but my sensibility and commonsense wouldn't allow me buy one!

I do like the new Mitsu Pajero - I have to say I am eyeballing one.

But I have to say I don't understand the Fortuner craze . . are they any different to drive to a Vigo?

A car is simply a way to get from A to b for me but I do really like my Mazda Tribute and it's an absolute godsend in wet weather travelling from Patong to Phuket town for work everyday. I feel very secure.

My Honda Air Blade is great for cruising around in Patong in the sun down to the beach, 711, the gym or whatever as parking in Patong is not so great but I don't particularly like riding further afield, especially at night.
