Was parked in Grosvenor Square the other day and looked out my window to see what appeared to be a silver RHD. But what made it strange is when it passed the badges said G400 CDI..... an impossibility I know.

So either my eyes are deceiving me and it wasn't RHD, or it was rebadged, or someone had an awful lot of money to spend converting a LHD to a RHD...

It had UK plates and darkened windows. The stainless tire cover was a little dented and so was the right rear panel next to the rear door window.

Sound familiar - someone explain to me so I know I wasn't halucinating?

Re: A Very Strange Sight

im sure someone said for a tidy sum you could have it converted to rhd, and i remember when in the mayfair garage they said it could be done but werent sure on the prices. Makes you think though, they must really like the diesel as if your spending that money surely they are in g55 price range!

if im up there ill keep my eyes open wide for it!

p.s dont think he will have trouble selling that one day either!
