if you've grown up with RHD then gear shifts with your left hand aint an issue. Touch screens for climate control, utter disaster no matter what side the driver is on. Dials and sliders all the way, can be done er by touch rather than having to look away from the road and fudge about on a screen. A bit 25W headlights, completely unsafe yet completely legal if not mandated. Pah!One upside of LHD is that you get to use everything - gear lever, navi, music, climate control, the lot - with your right hand. Which, unless you happen to be left-handed, is a welcome feature, especially in this day and age of touch screens and complex user interfaces.
That's so true. But alas, touch screens are here to stay, whether we like it or not.Touch screens for climate control, utter disaster no matter what side the driver is on.

very true re the new styles though I think the new Supra has dials and buttonsThat's so true. But alas, touch screens are here to stay, whether like it or not.
Besides, alternative input methods, like the BMW iDrive, or the Mercedes joystick, whatever it's called, or the touchpad used in Audis, or the Lexus mouse, they're all awkward to use with your left hand. And to be honest they aren't much better than the touch screen anyway. Come to think of it, I prefer the touch screen, all things considered.
Nothing more alien for a Brit than shifting a manual with your right hand, even if you're right handed! Driven my fair share of LHD in Europe and it does get easier, but always feels wrong lolOne upside of LHD is that you get to use everything - gear lever, navi, music, climate control, the lot - with your right hand.

Yes, the heated and cooled seats are missing. Also, there seems to be no automatic climate control, it's all entirely manual.so potentially for dials and buttons for the heater controls we just need the base radio... so sat nav or heater controls via button......
edit thinking about it - thats the heated and cooled seats switchgear where those dials are?
