Yes, for several import-cars the buyer can choose, if LHD or RHD. Some people take LHD. because the car looks more "authentic European", a few others due the knowledge, that the LHD-version of non-UK-origin European cars is better quality than the RHD. A friend, who worked for 31 years in the prototype-division of the VW-plant Emden, told me the reason: a German car is always developed and constructed as LHD. For creating the RHD, they take a finished prototype and convert it. Which logically contains cobblework. The RHD-K 70 ist one of the worst constructions.
