Just to give you a idea about costs for repair and services here in Chiang Mai – this is my bill for repairing the Mira – a new front axel, new rear brake drum, special coolant hose from pump to radiator, new dipstick (one of the highest cost), misc. fittings and clamps and service charge: complete 4120 Baht @ 35.7 baht/dollar = $115.50 Took a full day to repair and they had to completely remove the front fender assembly to do the water hose work – in at 8 AM picked up at 4:30 PM —– Can you imagine the cost in the States to do the same thing – I was just charged $22 for labor —– I can’t guess what it would cost anymore, but I know I couldn’t handle it. Retirement living here is GOOD and affordable.
