LHD D4's in the UK
I am about to move to the South West and I may take my D4 with me.
I have the adaptive lights so that should be a blessing, but would I also need to have an MPH sticker on the speedo (given that we can have the speeding MPH on the display)?
However, selling it over here (Switzerland, outside of the EU of course!) could be the more sensible option though as I should be able to get enough out of it to fund a like for like swap back in the UK whereas my LHD could be worth that much less in the UK.
To get an idea of LHD values in the UK, I took a quick look on Autotrader but could only find one Disco 4 listed for sale. Where else should I be looking?
I guess it could ultimately be sold back into the EU if I don't get on with it in those Devon lanes....MY11 D4 SDV6 SE LHD (with remote park heater, heated seats in row 2, heated steering wheel and rear HVAC controls!)

LHD cars are not cheap any more, a lot get sold to expats to bring back in to the EU. I thought the same as you and looked for a LHD car in the UK to bring to France. Shocked at the prices An honorable defeat is better than a dishonorable victory.” ― Millard Fillmore

You could be right. I just found this one.. £22k for a LHD 2010 HSE with 100k miles.
My car is a loaded SE with half the 'miles' which is currently worth about the same sort of level out here.MY11 D4 SDV6 SE LHD (with remote park heater, heated seats in row 2, heated steering wheel and rear HVAC controls!)

Re speedo, couldn't you just convert the digital one to mph? With an IID you can even keep everything else metric. Would that be enough for the MOT?
Would be like this, except the opposite way round.
