BANGKOK, Dec 7 - Car booking orders at Bangkok's Motor Expo is still high despite unstable political situations in the country.

Motor Expo President Kwanchai Prapatpong said the first seven days of the 30th Thailand International Motor Expo 2013 (Nov 29-Dec 5) has seen the car booking orders at over 19,000 units for small vehicles. He said the figure was satisfactory and people keep coming to visit the event.

Many new car models have been launched by different companies this year, while special promotions, considered as the best of this year, are on offer, Mr Kwanchai said.

Toyota has seen the highest booking volume at more than 3,900 units, followed by Honda at 3,200 units and Nissan as well as Isuzu respectively each at around 2,000 units.

Mercedes-Benz ranks first in expensive items at over 500 units, followed by BMW at 370 unit, Subaru 190 units, and Volvo 101 units.

The Motor Expo organiser expected the car booking volume at the event to reach 50,000 units and generate Bt50 billion in circulation, while the number of visitors predicted at more than 1.6 million. (MCOT online news)

What an interesting article with comments to match:

The news yesterday stated bookings were 50% down on previous expos - so who is telling the truth?

A new car does not mean debt - who are you kidding unless you are using the reasoning there is no intention to actually pay the debt only to use the item until it is confiscated.
