Does anyone know the best/cheapest/simplest way to get a secondhand car from the UK to Thailand-without driving it there, which, alas, seems pretty well impossible?

The only other option is to ship it. The AA can give you good advice on that if you
ask. I think you'll find the most difficult (and possibly most expensive) part of the
journey is the last few feet from the port to the public road, thanks to the Thai
customs authorities.

You might also need to add additional cooling to the car engine. The ambient
temperature in Thailand is very high and the traffic moves very slowly (if at all).

Also, you will need air conditioning!
