Hello Erich,
since you are in Japan and cars there drive on the left (right way) side, just like in the UK, I have a transmission question, please.

In a previous post I mentioned that my transmission gave up going in reverse. And that I was going to buy a second hand one from a dealer or ebay here in Germany. But you gave me some excellent contacts to telephone as well.

Now I get different suggestions: One BMW garage man says that you cannot fit a German transmission in a UK right hand drive, another garage man says it makes no difference.

I will call Andre Hötzel to get my transmission fixed, replaced, whatever. in the meantime please tell me who's right. Meant to say it's an automatic as well (forgot to mention)

Many thanks
