Without a doubt, much cheaper to source a LHD version. Why would you destroy the provenance of such a vehicle, even if you could find the parts?

If you can buy an extremely good Mk 6 for 4500 (pounds? Euros?) then buy it and sell it over here.

Or tell us where it's for sale at that price.

If this is correct then RHD is the least of your worries, something stinks, and badly.

I suspect you may be relieved of your E4500 and have nothing to show for it.
