Hallo aus Großbritannien

Hi Davey,
you are really sure you want a car in that size with the "wrong steering" ? And the sliding door will be on the "wrong" side too.

Perhaps it should be better to buy a used Viano in Britain and let it change to a Marco Polo ( or similar ). Or try to ask at "Westfalia" in Germany if they will change a used Viano to a camping or day-van.

I have been in Scotland last year and leant a very small car with the "right steering" und really happy to have done this. And yes, i have seen lots of Viano-Taxis.

Best regards
Uli

Hi Uli,

I should explain If I were to buy a LHD Viano Fun I would merely be swapping the interior (seats anyway) with my RHD Viano and then I would register the vehicle here then later re-export the LHD Viano from the UK as randomly there is quite a demand for good LHD vehicles in this country.

Obviously sourcing just the rear seats would be simpler but as far as vehicle dismantlers / breakers in Germany go, I wouldn't have a clue who to trust and I have no idea of value - valuing a whole car is much simpler

Thanks for the Welcome!

The problem with the Beer is the legal regulations imposed by the "Weights and measures" law which means a pint of Beer must be a Pint of beer rather than mostly froth, this means we get more beer (which is always good) however not so good for Spirits and Wine as bars always make sure they don't give too much

First of all, welcome to the Forum! It is a lively forum with a number of people who really know what they are talking about and are prepared to share that knowledge.

Be careful if you buy a car a long way from home. I speak from experience :-(

As for a seat, I am sure SOMEONE could tell you how much they cost new over here. That would give you an idea of the used price, depending on condition.

Mercedes themselves break cars as a form of recycling. You might look up their website and see what they have.
