Just bought a new (used) car!!

Thanx Robin Merrill of TKO car and Motorbikes for hooking me up with a good deal on the new (used) whip.

I’ve been driving a motorbike while living here in Thailand…and have been looking for a used–but reliable car for awhile.

–I will probably be looking to purchase a newer vehicle next year sometime…but with recently moving into a new house…and having to furnish the entire place…just don’t have it in my budget.

I bought this Nissan MV–which reminds me of the Ol’ school El Camino from the states for 75,000THB.

With Robin’s help I upgraded the rims/tires–fixed the cd player–and replaced a few belts for the engine.

…all together I’ve spent 90,000thb on the vehicle. Gonna get a couple of rust stains removed and then it should be good to go!

I’m actually looking forward to the rainy season now :)
