Gawd,
Never seen that before. It's a lot of money to convert a car for real. Many try to do that and bring cars from Europe to Ireland. They usually use a crashed car for parts.

Interesting.. it's actually illegal to use opposite drive cars there? Right hand drive cars seem to be legal here, just not common.

Sorry to be a myth-buster, but that's a conversion kit for Rural mail carriers here in the US...

It's not illegal but insurance costs more for a LHD than a RHD car.
