This must be a rare thing to find in France, a totally original (LHD) 105E, now back in the UK. The body is incredibly sound, and as for that interior...!

Very nice and I'm a former owner of and still an admirer of the 105E.

If any of you bought this would you convert it to right hand drive?
Or would that spoil it?

I'd definitely keep it LHD. Original LHD Anglias must be like hens teeth now, and when you come to sell it on it will be worth a good premium on the continent. Smile

When you come to sell a right hand drive car in the UK there is a probable market of 60 million people.

On the other hand market a left hand drive car on the European market and you have a probable 739 million people.

I have some left hand drive vehicles,no problem with driving them.

Bids reached £1850 and did not meet reserve.

The final bid was at the right money IMHO.
