Nearest Nissan and Kia Dealers

[Big Boy]

A couple of friends will be searching for a car in the next couple of days. I know where most of the dealers are, but can't find:

- Nissan - I know of one in Pranburi. Is there anything closer.

- Kia - I don't remember seeing one of those at all.

Can anybody help please?

There is a Nissan dealer in Cha Am as well but it's probably not much nearer than Pranburi unless you happen to be staying in that direction.

And I just found the KIA Thailand website and there doesn't seem to be a dealer nearer than Bangkok:

Yontrakit in Bang Khae is probably the closest Kia dealer.
I'd stay well clear of Kia, they've been here before and pulled out.

For Nissan, as mentioned already, it's either Cha-Am or Pranburi.
The Cha-Am dealer is on the beach side of Petchkasem as you approach Cha-Am, I think this is it 12.791819,99.971143.

Thanks guys - very helpful. I must admit I was quite dubious when they said they wanted to look at Kia.

Proton are making headway into Thailand again, I believe they have a dealership in Petchaburi and one in Prachuab KK.
They seem to come with Euro spec safety equipment (multiple head/side/knee airbags) as opposed to the one or two airbags Thai spec cars get.

They've got a showroom at the end of Soi 96 as well. I think that will be my friends first port of call.
