IIRC They actually made a R19 valver without alloys and with them steel wheels as standard in Europe... |

it looks utter shite on steelies. Only the ph1's suit the retro look of the steelies! |

As it goes, i have been looking at some LHD valvers, weighing up the pro's and con's of getting one, in general seems that european valvers are in generally better condition than UK ones.
You can get them with Aircon too, i've not seen a UK valver with aircon fitted.
Will be funny thou driving and shifting gear with your right hand hehe
we could always try and get some of us to pop over to La Franscai and go on a valver mission to get all the bits and pieces to convert ours to aircon, get the ph3 switches, 16S badges and all the other bits the euro's got on thier valvers which us in the UK did not get heh |

lhd cars are much better to drive.
Clutch is a LOT lighter, throttle is lighter.
The downpipe doesn't have the kink in it to go round the steering rack so should help with power and blah blah. |
