Why would you want a RHD Car in a LHD country ?

Car engines make CO2 and trees absorb CO2. By running your engine you're feeding a tree and helping the environment.

I purchased and paid for a 1968 Mini from David Ellison located in Hull, UK, he goes by mountanminis on Ebay. The car was to be shipped to the US. He had stated in his ad and on the phone the car was in good drivable condition. Just when he received the full payment he stated that the car needed some minor work prior to shipping. Months of excuses he finally says the car is fixed but demanded an additional $2,000. I said no ship the car. At which time he offered the car for sale, the one he had sold me.  I had to file a report with the police (still active) and the Trading Standards and still it took awhile with lots of excuses before he returned my money. I would not recommend anybody dealing with him.

David ellison must have wrote it, trying to redeem himself. The said transaction never existed at all. 
People trusts italianjobber more than david ellison.

One year ago I bought a Mini from Mountain Minis, David Ellison to be imported to Andorra.
It goes without saying that I checked the local laws and used car import procedures especially because it is a right hand drive model.
Since Andorra is a quite unusual place to deliver a car since it had be by truck accessed through Spain or France I did the deal with Mountain Minis including shipping and insurance.
The transaction and communication with David Ellison worked perfect.   The car that I didn't had inspected in person in advance corresponded to David's description and the delivery occurred without any problem except for a snowstorm that closed our borders for some time.   But since David had already organized the communication between the truck driver and the people that received the car at the Andorra border everything worked out well.   The car was registered without ant problem and I'm enjoying my Mini whenever.   I would like to leave my thank you to Mountain Minis and David Ellison for the excellent service.
