I just checked out that web site and I'm simply at a loss for words over those prices.

I dont know the exchange rate for aussie dollar but I paid ?15000 which is about $25000 I think I know it is a large mark up but there are a few changes that have to be made for UK like electricity and a hand brake has to be fitted and new foam for the seats to fit in with UK standards and I know my van had to have back lights refitted as the ones it arrived with do not work in the UK

Its just a pull handle I will have to get under it for photos so when it stops raining Is would not hold the 5er its just for show as it is the regulations here as for foam some red tape and not British standard so they have to change it to BS

Thanks Liz, no need to get wet! I think I understand now, the handle if more like a parking brake, correct?

I guess I'm still confused about the seat foam though, is the US version not flame retardant or something like that?

If we were importing for ourself the foam would be no trouble but because the dealer is selling it on it has to have a safety stamp that is British Standard and as it does not they have to change it
