Did he sell it for 55k £?

Not sure. Looks like he had it listed before:

He didn't sell it.

I wonder how the owner got on with a LH drive in the UK. I've driven LH cars in the UK on occasion and it's the biggest PITA. Brits love their car parks with barriers that require you to take a ticket on entry and pay on exit....from the RH seat!

This guy is a genuine EV nut - he even told me he prefers the Rav4 EV he bought.

I've driven a RHD in mainland Europe for a few years and have received quite a few odd looks when going through a drive-thru in reverse! I've found that overtaking on country roads stuck behind a large truck is the only real problem.

Note to Europeans: Stop buying up the used Thunder Grays from California! I need the price to fall.
(I know of others besides #114 that went to Europe...)

Teg, he's looking for a second rav4. Maybe you can convince him to trade and get it send back ;-)
