Is MG making a comeback? At least in Asia...

Also saw a Royal Thai Army troop transporter on the road...

Lastly, diesel + manual transmission = winner. Love these vintage busses...

Landed in Hanoi today and saw my first VinFast. VinFast is a Vietnamese automaker. The car is based on the previous generation BMW products.

@lu I have never heard of the VinFast before; it is a nice looking sedan.  I didn't realize that Vietnam manufactured cars.

 Most importantly, a bowl of noodles

Oh man, I'd love to have that S600! What a grocery-getter that would be!! And, YUM, looks like my kind of meal. Glass noodles?

@perrone1 Not sure about getting groceries in a Pullman, but the noodles were tasty. I'm not sure what it was called; I just ordered the first thing on the menu  Smile

Landed in Ho Chi Minh City after another trip on a vintage Airbus with no tail number, a little sketchy. Anyway, I got a sweet ride to the hotel. Now I have a new perspective on vans...

1

Also saw an S class-based Maybach in a sea of scooters...

2

Got another bowl of noodles. I asked the chef to put everything in. Let's call it the combination bowl...

@perrone1 Tony;  I would love to own a Maybach but the monthly payments I could afford dictated that I would have to live to be 216.

Squeezed in a toy car shop visit between meetings. My colleagues thought I was crazy going down the alley...

1

It took me a while to find it...

2

Mostly 1/18 and 1/43, but I did see a 1/24 BBurago Ferrari. Anyway, I bought two 1/24 VinFast cars. So excited!!!!!!!!!!!! Will post pictures once I get back. Lastly, I saw this miniature truck on the street. Looks like someone took a Kei truck and squeezed it. Enjoy!
