anyway i have two cars and a van, i decided against new cars as the way people drive here they just get damaged, and there are so many mopeds that also try and squeeze through gaps and damage you car, i have a VW Vento and a Toyota Corrolla just for pottering around in, i also have this beast below which i use for longer journeys, inside there are just leather seats (no beds as we dont sleep in it), it has TV, DVD etc, 3 litre engine, nice piece of kit to be honest. here it is outside my bangkok house
considering getting a bike also for the busy traffic, mopeds are very cheap here, 500 quid for a new one, but i dont think i will get a moped, a good quality vespa will only cost about a grand, and choppers are plentiful, but i may go for a sports bike, maybe R6.
anyone else here ride bikes?

fuel consumption is ok if you drive normally, but it drinks like a fish when you push it. which is most of the time still, if i wanted something sensible i'd have bought an anorak

either that or a 'gixer' - Suzuki GSX-R thou to the 4 wheeled brigade. Or if you really want a battle - try a TL1000 - Mad! Mad power...
