Has anyone ever imported an R107 from the US? I am looking for some help on what is needed for MoT? Are the twin headlights adjustable for UK road use? Also can the rear fog light be switched from left to right?

One wonders why not buy in the UK?

I imported an Aston Martin DB6 Volante Vantage from the Sates many years ago, but it was RHD & UK specification, so a good buy the other side of the pond.

Appreciate your reply, but I was hoping for some info specifically to question.
Thanks

I have seen LHD twin headlight SL's in this country; I assume you will have to change the lights to the correct "dip-left" spec.

Sorry no idea about rear fog light.
