Import right hand drives

Is it possible to import a right hand drive Volvo to the U.K at a lower
price than through a U.K Volvo dealer.

 

From where? Only a small handfull of countries use RHD, and there's probably
more Volvos in the UK than all the other RHD countries combined.

 

Depending where from, any car might not be set to run properly in the
average humidity, temp etc in a different country. Cars imported directly
from UK to Australia, for instance often run like pigs here without
modification. Cars here often if not always have slightly different engine
specs to their equivalent in UK, US etc.

 

So these are just a handful?

What about England, Scotland and Wales or are they phasing it out starting
with buses & trucks, as in that unkind Irish joke?

 

Hmm ok I stand corrected, I had no idea there were so many.

 

I don¹t know what happened to the UK?!

Bugger, try and be a smart arse and it never works!

PS any luck with the 340?

 

....and Scotland, with a name like Hamish! I thought it was a good list just
the same.

Well the 360 first caught my eye, wouldn't want to have much to do with
anything related to Renault though which I think the 340 is? Saw a 440
Saturday - the mechanic said it was one 12 in Australia. The owner had
waited 3 months for new CV joints, can't understand that but not a good
advert. Just they seemd so cheap for a quality car, like the 265 I bought -
bit of a gamble but nice to drive til it blows up. The daughter isn't ready
to buy anything but her old car is...

 

We in Australia are right hand drive so is Japan and until recently some
Arab countries like Dubai .
