Hi Mini lovers
Would anyone know where i could convert (under 1000e) a 98Cooper RHD to LHD near Dublin?
Am planning to send it to Portugal where driving is on the "wrong" side of the road
Also, any tips of garages around Dublin area that are good servicing or diagnostic Minis would be great. Thanks!!
Pedro

Just today I finished driving from Dublin to Madrid, had contemplated changing the RHD to LHD before leaving but decided I would give the drive a try on the RHD, I just changed the headlamps to the correct side.
After driving all around France and down through Spain I didnt notice any problems with the steering being on the other side other than at toll booths. Overall I found the car to be small enough for it to be fine driving it as it is. In a larger car there might be blind spots but in the mini the viewing and sight lines were all fine.
