more evidence that a LHD is not right, not proper, not appropriate, not cool, a LHD Mini is one step below a BMW BINI. thank you Dr Mini for that insight.

"don't even ergonomics.. you can look and see one looks proper and one does not." What you fail to realize is that the steering wheel sits at an unusual angle in LHD Minis that is not ERGONOMICAL to the driver's position. The steering wheel sits straight in RHD Minis. SIMPLE!

No Bill, of course not. Referring to that troll who plagued us for years (or at least it seemed so ) who had about seven identities, was banned repeatedly and kept popping back up, almost completely destroying this forum.

And the tedious part isn't about the LHD vs RHD issue but about Jim seeming to bring it up repeatedly (and probably unnecessarily) in various threads. Lets move on.

It doesn't take Brain of Britain to work out why RHD is technically better than LHD in a Mini, just eyes and an idea of ergonomics.

Jim, give it a rest. You are starting to sound like that "other person". The "funny" has worn off.

for sale.. I bet it is due to readers here realizing how LH drive Minis are so wrong in so many ways and they want to dump their Mini.  I should tell them it is not that tough to switch the car to the proper side...
