On the point of conversion from left to right hand drive, James Geddes at Traction Repairs has just completed such a conversion which included going from Malle Bombe to Malle Platte, but it was a long (and I assume not inexpensive) process
However I, like Bernie prefer French models and if your shoe size is in proportion to your height…. sitting in a French car and a Slough car will quickly demonstrate one of the fundamental differences, especially in a small bodied car. I’m grateful to Tim Walker for pointing it out to me during my search for a Traction.
