Welcome to the forum.

I googled "import costs vehicle from UK to Thailand". Found companies that will ship the car for you.
The taxes for importation are horrendous. Between 150% to 300% of the vehicles value, then shipping costs.

DON'T!  :cheers:

I've been in shipping for 20 years in Thailand and have never imported a vehicle into Thailand (excluding diplomats)  as nobody is dumb enough to pay up to 300% tax and duty.
