E,TYPE CONVERSTION

[grahamrichards]

If I buy rhd E.type can it be converted to LHD

[littleredrooster]

Anything is possible if you have enough money to throw at it.

[Cledus Snow]

Yes. But why would you?

[grahamrichards]

Because Ilive in Portugal

[MG511]

Most were sold in the USA so you'd be better off buying LHD car from a dry state like Texas.

[grahamrichards]

If you could afford the huge import tax to metriculate it in portugal ,its bad enough from UK probably about 10,000.0
euro from the states you could double that

Surely with appreciating classics like the E-Type, originality is everything. Hacking it up to swap the steering from one side to the other might seriously affect values. Depends if that sort of thing is important to you or not I guess

[Roo]

Buy one from Etypeuk.com

They can supply LHD and RHD from either of their offices in the UK and the US.

If its expensive to import to portugal cant you import to the UK then use EU rules just to drive it over? They cant charge extra importing from the UK to Portugal can they?

[grahamrichards]

yes they can and do ,I have recently finished restoring a TR4 and to metriculate it to drive in Portugal was going to cost 5600.00 euros, and I am a resident of 12 years ,all the talk of free movement of goods etc is *******
