Left Hook Cars
bootlegger:
It wasnt that long ago that you couldnt drive any LHD car on the road except for ex army jeeps and cars that were registered before Moses wore sandles. Firstly it was club rego then cars more than 30 years old. I think what you guys want will come in time. I drive my car to work and back a fair bit and Ive never had any trouble or close shaves. Dave

^ Yeah, I remember when left hookers had LEFT HAND DRIVE in red tape letters across the rear bumper.

As much as I love my C3 I would have preferred to buy a C5 convertible. But if I couldn't leave it LHD I wasn't interested. FYI; in WA a car must be 15 years old to be registered as a LHD.

The quirky thing is that you cant import a vehicle built after 1989 (ie 19 years old and increasing...) unless it is going to be RAW'd to RHD so that 15 year window is going to blow right out.... and is effectively a 19 year rule unless the car is already in the country.

Yeah and I remember getting my car filled ,oil and tyres checked.Lets get to today.
Only thru the clubs can one make the changes.
The minister for transport doesnt really know about the differences WA to NSW and you need a concrete plan as to why it needs to be updated and unsafe to change a car from what it is.
We have historic plates maybe the first stage could be with club plates and being a member of a club pay a bit more to enjoy driving as is.
Constant pressure on the government thats how eastern creek drags got started.
So approach ur committee they work for you get a plan I'm ready to sign

I see one main irrefutable reason why we need to have right hand drive cars...........
How the hell do you place an order at McDonalds drive through with a left hand drive car? ;58
