Hi all
In about 4 weeks time I will need to hire a car in Bangkok. Preferable a 4wd to go to chon buri then onto ubon ratchatani back to korat and then back to Bangkok.
5 adults and one infant. I will need a baby seat.
Any suggestions where?

News is what someone, somewhere is trying to suppress - everything else is just advertising.
Budget may be a starting point?
Cheers
I have always used Budget in the past and collected from and delivered back to the airport.
Not sure about a baby seat option but the cars have always been in good condition - at least until we got hold of them.

Don't think you will have much luck with the baby seat, best to bring yer own. The guy who runs expat rentals ? seems to be quite helpful, I dunno how many cars he has available tho. If you need I can ring around for you and see what the best deal may be.
With 5 adults and a baby seat you would be better of with a Van type thing, the baby seat takes up half the back seat which will barely leave room for two adults in the back, its a squeeze I know from xperience.

I will suss it out and lend you a babyseat!!!
Cheers,
Last time we rented a Toyota Wish which can fit quite a few in - upto 7 probably depending on luggage and fatness - they said we could have a baby seat, but we didn't bother - I think that was with Budget from the airport - no problems, but pricy - over 2,000 baht a day I think!
I think we had some problems getting it as it is subject to avialability and most places it wasn't available - in the end we went with who had it - i just can't remember who that was - office on Wireless Road, near the embassy...

Thats an option but I do have the car seat. Used but still fine.
AO - that is a great idea and may just come in handy as I didn't really want to lug one all the way from here. Ariya will be 8 months old - is that ok?
This is all still in the planning stage. As of ysterday we were all going to fly to ubon and just hire a car from there which I have done before but that changed today with this trip to chonburi. I figured that after driving from bkk to chonburi I might as well just travel onto towards ubon instead of back into the city/airport/flying/2hr drive from ubon etc. The other option that might happen is 2 of the adults fly home and the rest of us to the drive which would be fine in a smaller car.
Nick A that car would be perfect for all of us. Will have to wait and see if all of us will be driving.
Peterpan do you have a link to expat rentals?
The seat is yours. Its ten to fifteen minutes for me to get it to you. You want two!??
avis on wireless road is also quite good!

Oh okay, well I am fat
Hey isn't chonburi the province with pattaya in it? Maybe I should pop in on the dog and scare the shite out of him.
^ you will catch him in Soi 6
Haha I don't think I will be heading down that way - might just throw rocks on his roof at 11am to wake him up.
I hope you're strong. His place is 5 storys high.Originally Posted by MeMock
MM: Budget are good but they don't have a counter at the airport...Thai Mafia don't allow it...their counter is in the Amari Airport Hotel...BUT they do free delivery and pick-up from your hotel or home and complete all the paper work there which is real convenient...
Avis are a bit restrictive as to where you can go...
Hatch is your man from Q Cars - a welshman held in high regard by those of us fortunate enough to be considered his friends - but I think he only does long-term lease not short term rentals...
that said, he would be my first choice simply because he's just one of the guys running a small business, rather than putting money into the corporate machine of Avis, Hertz or Budget
hope we can catch up this trip

I am quite often awake before 11am actually, some of us do have to work for a living you know, from Monday my staff will be working till 11pm every night for a few weeks, this creates a lot more work for me from ordering enough materials to working out how much we charge and also wages bill, infact tomorrow I am thinking of getting up at 10am, and tomorrow is a bloody Sunday, you just don't understand what it is to work for a living....Originally Posted by MeMock
^Sounds like you're not so much a builder as an Administrator - can't you get a nice young Thai girl to do that sort of thing and more....
thats the money side of things Nick, aint no Thai I can trust on that, Hell, I got me foreman sticthing me up for about 1,000baht per month on fake petrol bills, and the cnut had the front to ask for a wage increase a couple of weeks ago, as for women, I think by the time I understand them I will be too old for sex anyway, it's not like they are real human beings anyway, I take my galfriend to a short time bar and shag a couple of gals while she watches and she tips them, I come home with lipstick on my Tshirt and she does her nut, foking weird things these women.
I thought your good buddy's name was Hatch?Originally Posted by klongmaster
Fucking hell mate, I understand women better than you - I'd flip my nut if you did that - lipstick is such a persistant stain, it'll take ages to get that out - not as bad as semen though - so next time she comes home with cum all over her blouse, give her a slap from me!Originally Posted by dirtydog
(((((Please not that I donut condome domestic violence - the above is meant only as a joke and to make fun of the Dog)))))
There is a car company 69 or something similar big international one has showroom on rama 4 and sathorn road/wireless road junction
If you are going to Chonburi you can always stop here on the way back look at Wat Sathorn and eat some food with me.
