The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in Thailand are: BMW 3 series Cabriolet, Peugeot 206 Cabriolet, Renault Megane Cabriolet and BMW Z4.
At the booking time, please check the rental conditions carefully. Quite often, rental offices in Hua Hin require two credit cards to guarantee issuance of a cabrio or a roadster.
We recommend ordering additional no-excess insurance that covers your risk (franchise), since the franchise amount for cabriolets in Thailand is quite high.
Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in Hua Hin and compare it with the information indicated in your voucher. Sometimes, rental officers make 'unintentional' mistakes in rental invoices.
In parking garage, examine the vehicle for defects and scratches carefully. If you find any of them, check whether they have been specified in your rental document.
When parking a cabriolet in Hua Hin, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

Many roads have constrictions, where even two cars will find it hard to pass one another. In this case, local drivers solve the problem in accordance with a simple unspoken rule – the driver who was the first one to “wink” with the car beams has the right to go first.
One of the most frequently issued fines concerns driving with unfastened safety belt and talking on a cell phone while driving. The Thais are very careful about the abovementioned rules and try not to break them.
The control over the implementation of the traffic regulations is stricter in the capital of the country. Roads of Bangkok are equipped with radars and cameras that record all traffic violations, so the traffic in this city can be safely called calm. If talking about the islands, the situation is not that optimistic there. Traffic violations are almost uncontrolled there, so local drivers prefer not to waste their time following the traffic regulations. As a result, traffic violations can be seen literally everywhere.
