Came across this vehicle while walking along the street one day. It was in a motorcycle shop that was full of self-built choppers - all were reasonably priced too! Anyway, this car was kind of like a hobby project for them - it runs on electricity, comes with automatic gears, seats two, and is fully air-conditioned as well! Although it was for sale, it cannot be driven on the main roads. From the looks of it, it does not look like it can withstand much of a collision as well.
However, if you want a small, compact car that will turn heads around the neighbourhood, this is the one for you!
Unlike Singapore, you do not get penalised for owing motor vehicles and especially, older ones. As such, there are many collectors and enthusiasts of classic cars and bikes, such as the one below, and you can often see these vehicles on the roads.
Happened to see some motorbikes on sale today at a shopping mall. It costs THB 79500, which is about SGD 3180. And you own it for life.
In comparison, a similar bike costs about SGD 6000 in Singapore with about half going to the Certificate of Entitlement, i.e. permission to own it for 10 years. After 10 years, you will need to pay again to renew the COE for another either 5 or 10 years.
What a ripoff...

I was driving past a car showroom today when I saw a Chevrolet Camaro in it that looked exactly like Bumblebee in the Transformers movies. Is it cool or what?
Not sure if the car comes with a right hand drive instead of a left hand one though.
