Synopsis
Welcome to the fastest, most colorful, and most unregulated automotive market in the world!
Have you ever wondered how to delicately maneuver a petite Thai city slicker through the narrow, humid alleys of Bangkok without having your cylinder head gasket blow right around your ears?
Or, as a foreign driver, how can you tell if your freshly imported dream model is secretly running in multi-user mode during your absence-while you dutifully wire the monthly maintenance fees from back home?
M. K. Greene takes you on a high-revving, breathtaking joyride far off the beaten tourist highways. This satirical and highly amusing guide dissects Thai relationships and nightlife with the ruthless precision of an experienced car mechanic.
What to expect during this inspection:
- From the Showroom to the Purchase: From quick, on-site testing in neon-lit car rentals to the notorious overnight-lease rate, all the way to the risky final vehicle purchase-every leasing variation is thoroughly examined.
- The Model Lineup: Learn everything about the pitfalls of the agile compact class, the emotional vibrations of dangerous luxury sedans, and the tempting excursions in a convertible.
- Traffic Rules in a Tropical Paradise: Master the unwritten right-of-way rules in tropical left-hand traffic, avoid catastrophic engine failure, and always make sure you are backed up by the right occupant protection system.
A respectful, humorous, and deeply honest portrait of local customs for all lovers of extraordinary chassis, unforgettable test drives, and ordinary everyday chaos.
Buckle up. The "Safe-Drive-System" is activated, and the track is clear!
Recommended for adult readers and drivers with an official street-legal license.
