2013 January 8 to 14 - TO THAILAND HONDA FIX CAR!

Post by MCDS » Thu Apr 12, 2012 11:42 am

LATEST UPDATE: AS OF 14 NOVEMBER 2012


THE proposed date is from Tuesday, 8 January 2013 (evening) till Sunday, 14 January 2013.

Actually will be back by Sat or early Sunday so that Monday can go back to work...


This date is 90% confirmed. those need to plan and take leave may do so now...


The date is proposed by uncle Fread - trip leader.







**Date changed after discussion - December too wet, and too many holidays and too rush. Jan more relaxed highways and no need to squeeze with holiday people...

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

This thread is the result of a long discussed but never realised trip by ES drivers... so far only one goes up annually and he puts us all to shame...

so this year... at the end of the Mayan calculated calendar and entry into the NEW period which even they could not calculate... We shall go up north with Fred59...

those who cannot drive at speed limit... can move forward first or catch up but we meet at Alar Setar at an appointed time see how the plan first... and then cross together..

There should be some meetings and planning, as well as adjustments to your ES before going up... track cars with adjustable suspension should reset to 4 fingers at least hahaha... to cross boarder road humps...

etc.


Those interested should make plans and apply for leave where possible

tentative dates : from 20.12.2012 till 31.12.2012 or later... or earlier see how ... but it will be THAT PERIOD. you cannot make it on those dates, just go next next time lor... we will not be changing movement date... auspicious...

those going please post intent...

questions etc welcome, best talk at meetups so it's more face to face, and interested parties share faster info.... of course, we will also share here...

=====================================
Those intending to go on this trip must have valid passports and Honda preferably Civic ES, or City or Jazz/Fit or Airwave, or FD, or EG, or whatever Honda...
Going...

In addition to passport, also MUST need:

- copy of vehicle log card
- letter of authorization if you are not the registered owner
- international driving license (get from AA)
- 3rd party car insurance (buy at MY side before crossing into TH)

Also good to have:

- if you don't already have it, pay a bit to extend the coverage into TH your SG car insurance

Try to reach Sadao early, not much traffic the custom might allow to use another exit without humps. I crossed it with this height. :lol:

- copy of vehicle log card


If the car belongs to your parents or not under your name, just photoshop the log card, did it for a fren driving a stream under his biz partners name. They are more lax with Sg plates.

- letter of authorization if you are not the registered owner


The legal way.

- international driving license (get from AA)


I have never apply for one before in all my 12 trips, as long you are driving your own sg car and they have never ask.

- 3rd party car insurance (buy at MY side before crossing into TH

Most I believe our local insurance (comprehensive) does covers Malaysia except Sabah and Sarawak and 50km from Malaysia border into Thailand on visit pass which is 14 days and the place we are going is around 50++km, we should get a third party at the border (rm20 for 7 days) for a peace of mind. Tipu before kanna road block fined me 500 bahts cheep cheep but with the unrest lately sure got road blocks.
