Handbrake Position

Post by BlackRoc21 »

Hi all, couple of quick questions:
Is the LHD handbrake setup (i.e. lever is nearer to the passenger than driver) used in the UK RHD rocs? (seems to be setup in this way over here) Is that a bother to any of u?

Sometimes the brochures show a pic of the handbrake on the ergonomically correct side for RHD, but this is purely because they have created a mirror image picture of the LHD car.
