kaizoku Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 What car would you advice for 100,000 Baht ? - Reliable - Manual transmition - No air con is OK. - Open roof would be a nice but optional. I think I will be very happy with something small like a suzuki caribean but I didn't find it under 150 000 baht I also like the Jeep (like CJ-7) but it's a bit too expensive Is there a similar model that would match my price range ? If not what kind of car would you take ? I'm asking you this because I have a poor knowlege of thai 2nd hand market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naboo Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 You should easily find a Caribean for under 100k. Look on cars4thais or one2car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rixalex Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 For that sort of money all you are going to be buying is a world of pain. Can you not buy a motorcycle and use that for your purposes? Certainly be a darn sight more reliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaizoku Posted November 10, 2012 Author Share Posted November 10, 2012 (edited) I have the motorbike for daily use, but I need a car for going out with the dog or when I'm going to the shop. Also I think it will allow me to discover a bit further the area. I don't want to use the car everyday, I just need one sometime so I want a cheap and reliable one. Thank you Naboo for the advice.

SoCalChris Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Buy an older full frame truck/SUV and chop off the roof like they do with the older Chevy Blazers and Ford Broncos in the US..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rancid Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Perhaps a 5th or 6th hand car would be more accurate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignis Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 (edited) Guess for that budget would look at something like this http://www.thaicar.c...mer_id=Tent1143 or go here 219 cars and truck under 100,000 baht.......... http://www.one2car.c...0&price2=100000 1999 small pickup ? http://www.siammotor.com/siammotornew/detailcar.php?transnum=28124 Edited November 13, 2012 by ignis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elektrified Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 For 100K you will get nothing but rubbish. 200K and you can get a nice car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnynmonic Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 The old Isuzu Buddy vans go for about that much. Those things seem to go forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchrdam Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 One thing for sure ... forget the exoten like BMW, Hyundai, Peugeot, Volvo, Opel and so on. Go for a old Toyota or Nissan. At least spare parts on every corner of the street and and keep the car as basic as possible. Electronics will give problems by old cars.
