Default Noswaith dda from Wales, UK.

Noswaith dda or Good Evening from Wales.

I'll be collecting my 2008 GS450h SE from the dealers on Saturday and I'm really looking forward to it.

Welcome to CL.

Does Lexus even offer right-hand-drive models for the British/Welsh market?

Seeing as Lexus builds RHD models for their home Japanese market, why would you think they would have any problem supplying them for the UK?

Welcome MrAM!

Fair point. I'll agree with that. Lexus took their time, though, in actually getting to the JDM, selling their vehicles there under the Toyota name for years.

Not sure just who the weirdoes are, though. Britain, Japan, and Australia drive on one side of the road...........most of the rest of the planet on the other (and some drivers on both sides at once) .
