Jared Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Does anyone know if it is possible for a foreigner to purchase a Tuk Tuk and what kind of price they go for. My girlfriend seems to think that they only sell them to Thai? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My girlfriend seems to think that they only sell them to Thai? I'm sorry that I can't answer your question but if you do manage to buy one of these machines, please do the world a favour by; 1. Removing the noisy & polluting 2 stroke engine & replacing it with a sensible 4 stroke engine. 2. Installing a muffler to keep it very quiet.

Makyai Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Does anyone know if it is possible for a foreigner to purchase a Tuk Tuk and what kind of price they go for. My girlfriend seems to think that they only sell them to Thai? We came across this website and they were quite happy to deal with farangs. http://www.thailandtuktuk.net/index.html We made some inquiries via email and recieved a very professional response. I am not sure how the pricing compares to what a Thai can get it for, but at least farangs can buy them. Good Luck Makyai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVO Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 1) Yes, farang can buy via the manufacturer at the above website. 2) The price is just over 200,000THB, for the standard BKK Taxi configuration, varying with other custom configurations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
