I have just imported a USA V12 Roadster 1973/4 LHD into the
UK … in order to pass the UK MOT and get it registered etc
… I guess I have to get headlights readjusted so they beam
in the correct direction etc …and a few other bits n bobs
will need to be done? any advice and tips on how to do
this… and hopefully in a economically way? would be most
appreciated.

That’s not an adjustment, it’s a replacement. You need new headlights.
With the E-type they should be pretty cheap, though.

Are you going to have to switch the driver to the other side? Some countries
require that, others don’t. If your country does, I’d suggest you sell the car to
someone on the Continent, or perhaps trade it for a RHD car.

Paul,
When I imported my car from Canada to France and they wanted
that all lenses, glass and tyres had the E code markings.
Fortunately it was just the headlights the front flashers
and the tyres.
There was no noise specs provided from Jaguar though so I
had to go and have it tested…
