Taking A Car Into Cambodia And Touring The Country

[Nick33]

I have read the last entry where someone said that he wanted to take a UK registered car into Cambodia. One reply said he could the other said he couldn't. I and three friends are considering doing a tour of Cambodia and we are thinking of entering from Thailand via Kap Choeng just south of Prasat and Surin in Isan. Does anyone know it whether:

1. it is safe to take a car purchased in Thailand and registered in the drivers name into Cambodia as long as you have the book and 2. has anyone entered recently through that boder control and what is the road like going south to Phaang, Samrong, Chongkal and then Kralanh and if we cannot take the car can we get a taxi down there and how much? Sorry to be full of questions - if we cannot drive we want to travel down to Siam Reap perhaps downriver on the Tonle Sap to Phnom Penh.

If it is safe to take our own car the idea is to travel around the country and exit along the coastline back into Thailand to Trat. Thanks in advance for your time and info.
