A modern one? They do make them in LHD for mainland Europe.

Re: Huh?
I don't know that I've EVER seen a Vauxhall of any vintage.

I did see a RHD MG-F in Yellowstone park in 2000. It had British tags. The owner said he brought it into Canada to tour there and in the US, but had to sign paperwork stating that he would be taking it back to England before its special 90 day permit expired. No US emissions or safety standards approval.

Re: Huh?
The US Postal Service has had (and still has) quite a few RHD vehicles. Seeing a RHD vehicle (British, Japanese, or other) in the US is quite a bit more common than seeing a recent-vintage Vauxhall, (or Citroen, Lancia, Opel, Skoda, Holden...) in the US.
People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.

My cousin's daughter owns a Vauxhall Astra with RHD.

Re: Huh?
Silly question, and I have no reason for asking other than pure curiosity, but do you need a special validation/endorsement on your license (like you do to operate a motorcycle) to drive an RHD vehicle?

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

In the USA, maybe. However, most of my family live in Sheffield and Manchester where it's not necessary.Bicycle Bill wrote:Silly question, and I have no reason for asking other than pure curiosity, but do you need a special validation/endorsement on your license (like you do to operate a motorcycle) to drive an RHD vehicle?

Of course I meant in the USA. Thanks for belaboring (or in honor of your family in Sheffield, 'belabouring') the obvious, Ray.RayThom wrote:In the USA, maybe.

Re: Huh?
No special license for RWD in the US, anywhere I know. Plenty of RWD subarus and mail trucks.

Re: Huh?
True dat. Many vehicles I had were rear wheel drive
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Re: Huh?
Obviously there are plenty of RHD mail delivery vehicles around, but why Subarus? Am I missing some jest here?datsunaholic wrote:

In many rural postal areas Subaru RHD vehicles are used so USPS subcontractor can make the swift completion of their appointed rounds.ex-khobar Andy wrote:... Obviously there are plenty of RHD mail delivery vehicles around, but why Subarus? Am I missing some jest here?
