Banglas

I would go, if I could just watch. I am not into whips and chains, but might find it interesting to watch. From what I can gather, it sounds like there are private rooms and no place for voyeurs.

You have got the wrong idea. Maybe the place you have in mind is The Castle on Third Road. Whips and chains are not part of the service at DD. It is more about you, two girls and a few toys. If that doesn't interest you maybe Boyztown is more your style.

Yesterday I did just that. I own a car and was at my dealership for service. While I was there I spoke to the young lady who originally sold the car to me and told her I understand that now foreigners can get financing. She said yes, foreigners can get financing, but they have to put 50% down on the vehicle.

I think you will find the the requirements will vary from company to company. As I posted previously I put down less than 50%. At the time I only had a non-immigratnt type-O visa.

If any of you guys summons the courage to visit this establishment it is once again open for business.

Thanachart Bank are prepared to give finance to farangs for new cars.

Why beat around the bush!! I suspect that it is a well patronised business. It certainly has a strong following.

Some of the information in the OP is not strictly correct. It is possible to obtain finance for a new vehicle in Thailand but you might have to shop around. You will need at least a non-immigrant visa and a steady GF to co-sign. Both the car and the finance can be in a farangs name but you will probably need a 20 or 25% deposit.

It is not true that all service stations sell fuel at the same price.
