As a car owner, annual exspenses?

[Sampradaya]

For the 5th year, we need to renew the por ror bo government insurance, about B600, also car insurance, say through LMG about B20 000, and what else? We are confused. What about the license for the car, Fortuner? Anything else?

I would appreciate it if someone can help please?

the insurance at 20,000 seems expensive, the car tax is on a sliding scale so will be a little less than what you paid last year which is shown/printed in the blue car book, i think a 'mot' test is required at 6 years.

Compulsory 3rd party insurance even if you have better, 600 sounds about right.

20k for full comp imsurance on a new car, not sure that it will be available or that price if 5 years old. If finance paid off get lower insurance for a fraction of that, they wont pay out enough to replace the car anyway.

Dont think there is separate tax, think thats bundled with the compulsorary insurance.

on my car the tax started off at 1.645.50 baht and stayed the same for 5 years, then dropped yearly to this year 987.30baht all printed in the rear of blue book page 16
