What's the situation for someone on retirement visa getting finance on a new motor. Sorry if you mentioned it in the video. Also that sales lady in first showroom knew her stuff.

    Hi Jason, this is a great video. We are moving to Bangkok in August and we want to buy a used vehicle. Do you know, or could you please ask the next time you are in a dealership, if we buy a car in Pattaya, but live in Bangkok, will we need to register the car in Bangkok as it is a different province? Do you know if the dealership can do this? Also, have you ever heard of Zunn Auto Center and do you know if their cars are any good? Thanks for your help and keep going with the videos, we really enjoy watching them!

    • @goodvibespattaya
      @goodvibespattaya  2 роки тому

      Hi Paul, thank you for the kind words - if you buy in Pattaya or anywhere In Thailand you have to provide your address of residence so if you live in Bangkok the car will be registered in Bangkok when the transfer is done at the land & transport office. I have not heard of Zunn Auto but will google and have a look 👍

    For those Aussies out there here is an interesting fact. The GM Thailand assembly plant had a very large design input from Holden. Multiple vehicles on a single line was a specialty and competitive advantage we had. Now assembling MGs in low volume so I suspect only in CKD format with kits coming in from China.

    Hi Jason another good video on the used vehicles. I have a question. Don't the used vehicles have what's left on mfg warranty too? Most new ones come with 4/5 year 100k warranty. Doesn't the remainder rollover to new owner like other countries? I was going to buy a 1 or 2 year old model when I get back there as long as remaining factory warranty in place. I was also told it's a good idea to take any newer used car to factory dealer to run the Vin to make sure warranty, mileage, title etc checks out. I've often heard of mileage rollback in thai too so be careful. Good stuff man
