There is a reason if cars are cheap in the UK... RUST!
If you don't believe me, just ask any of these sellers to send you some pictures of the underside/suspensions components and brace yourself... cause it's gonna be shocking!

Don't get me wrong, there are some that have been properly looked after, or have had all the rust sorted. Problem is, they normally just don't come up for sale, and when they do, they sell real quick!
If you are adamant on importing one from here anyway, just check often for a good example (will probably have the underside pictures already published on the selling AD)

 

Thats interesting, I am really only familiar with the environment in the US and which states would be desirable.

 

I've put together a thread with my personal experience. Feel free to have a look: https://www.s2ki.com/forums/uk-irela...ation-1218473/

All in all, mine wasn't too bad but I've seen like 15 of them before settling for this one, and still the inner arch was shot. To be honest, unless the previous owner had it repaired already, they all are just like that. If you find one that has had the same amount of work mine's had, you are golden. The problem is, people don't tend to sell them after sorting them out properly. So is just a matter of either looking all the time, or choose the one with least amount of corrosion.

​​​​​​​Good luck

 

I saw a video of a guy giving the pros and cons of driving on the right side in the US . The only problem involves passing.. The only way for you to see down the rd safely for a pass is if the road makes a curve .

 

But not in reverse gear into a parking area
