Might be......................
Not sure of what RHD versions were made to be honest but it was in the UK. Mighty rare anyway. It has been said if I had kept all the rare stuff I had found I would have the best collection of micros in the country. I do not know or care if that is true really because I would also now own a lot of useless and unrestored vehicles I would never get round to doing anything with in a building costing money and worrying about security. No they are better off in most cases going to someone with the ability or finance to restore or stabalise them for the future. I gain pleasure in having touched them and when they reappear as I can think to myself 'I had/rescued that'. Its good enough for me. I have got passed needing to own everything which used to dominate my life. At one point I produced a business plan for a Museum based on one of two sites in the Cotswolds some 12 years before the Cooper's did much the same plan in thier own way. What stopped me was the fact I was creating a lifestyle totally based on small cars and limited by opening times and related business. It is not really what I wanted as you loose freedom. I think both I and the cars are better off for parting company. Some might be surprised about that but it is each to his own.
