That would be the stupidest insurance company I have ever heard of. I think you will find that you're wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame so many good drivers in Thailand - in cars, buses, trucks etc - have traffic accidents because they get let down by the failure of crappy mechanical parts. Especially in super-powered vehicles. Don't forget the road being in bad condition too, making your car hop into the path of an oncoming tree 555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retarius Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I do like Thailand, but the police giving a free pass to every twenty something that fly in supercars around doing damage at 3am really get my goat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catinthehat Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Could we add this to the neighboring article referring to the recent Suan Dusit poll where 85% of respondents believed that Thai youth are out of control. He certainly was. All he wanted to do was to show how the car can "hop" like the ones in East LA.Damn palm tree. That'll cost him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paying off the Police to look the other way is corruption. Not accepting a bid for a large project unless a bribe is paid, that is corruption. i think we have different ideas on corruption then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the vehicle goes air bound that tells you something. I would guess the friendship has come to an end as well. I can understand the concern for the palm tree as the people that can afford these "boy toys' can easily replace them regardless of cost or sting the insurance. No mention of alcohol strange. The lad driving must be way up the pecking order maybe at the untouchable level. A slap on the wrist and send him home to daddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A car like that with a limited production run of 350 will certainly hold its price or even appreciate in value over the years, especially as some numpty in Thailand has just totaled his mates car. To replace it with the same model he will have to find somebody who is willing to part (for a price) 1 of the other 349. The best of luck in doing that.

maewang99 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 (edited) knock off the corruption nonsense. fancy cars and lots of money doesn't nearly always mean corruption, not at home and not here either. corruption means fraud and bribery. it doesn't include normal everyday inequality, with Thailand not being the only one good at that now. with ignorance, not outright corruption, being the key to bliss.... as well as pretty much how it actually works, as well. it can't be all about bribes and fraud... at this scale.

I dont think anybody owning a lamborgini would be without first class insurance. This car has no way other than being declared a CTL (Comprehensive Total Loss) and the insurance company will pay for a new car less depreciation. even if not drunk which at 3am is very unusual then he was obviously speeding to get airborne and so why should insurance give the owner a new car,the driver should give his friend a new car !!!

Skeptic7 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Most of these supercar "owners" are in debt so deep they never recover and ultimately these vehicles are repo'd.

I doubt very much he is in debt. The two Thai guys I know with Lambos are far from being in debt. My friend's telecoms business generates around US$ 150 million a year, which is about 5.2 billion THB. He has other businesses too, but I don't know what they are worth.
