Mini in 7th place sounds like a patriotic purchase to me.

WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP BUYING ROGUES WTF
That’s because most British cars are rubbish...
Jaguar isn’t an obsession of the British at all.
Jaguar has not be doing well since like 1969.
You spelled large Caribbean country wrong.
Yup Status thing. Kinda like how people in the US tuner community will cream themselves over RHD japanese imports. There is a guy in my city I see periodically with a RHD 300ZX. I have absolutely no idea why on earth ypu would live with the inconvenience of a RHD car in a LHD country when you can get the same model…
LHD vehicle, but RHD lights probably, as well as some other idiosyncrothingis. Like having the wrong emissions classification.
That is regularly a problem with Porsches from the Emirates and other arab nations. Cheap to import, but often were sold de-catted and without additional gear to keep emissions and noise down,…
I think if the customer wants it they can get it.
Because to some merely having a LHD car highlights it’s a prestige import.
If he had a beige Toyota 1998 Camry, it would outlive him (and maybe if he has kids, the Toyota would outlive them, too).
Just like if it was a Jaguar, Rolls Royce, Aston Martin, etc... it would of been designed as a RHD first, LHD coming later.
Ugh. As an American who lived and drove in Japan, LHD on anything larger than a GTI sounds miserable. RHD makes a huge difference on tight city streets.
>>There wasn’t a day I drove it where the dashboard didn’t look like a christmas tree.<<
The only possible explanation.
The prestige comes in the form that companies such as BMW are German, Germany is LHD so any car they designed from the ground up would of been designed from the start to be LHD and RHD came later so BMW could sell their vehicle in RHD markets.
I hear Car & Driver has an Alfa Romeo for sale.
(Watkins claimed that it’s left-hand drive because that’s apparently a prestige thing in Japan)
[VWs] have a reputation for really good build quality...With these two cars in particular, that’s kind of the reputation they’ve got in the U.K.
Wait till this guy hears about Land Rovers
