Just to introduce myself, from the wilds of Northamptonshire. Have been driving a 2001 (I assume G8) Galant V6 Sport estate for just over two years now and have to say it's so much better than the Beemer 2.5 it replaced.
My particular car was an import having been used by some army captain over in Germany so I have the benefit of convex door mirrors on both sides and I still have LHD headlamps. Which brings me to one of my two niggles I have with the car. Does anyone know where I can get a set of RHD headlamps at less than £600 a pop? They appear to be as rare as the proverbial except via an agent. My only other gripe is the manual box, where I can beat the synchro on 1st, 2nd and 3rd if I really try hard enough. My main agent says its a good box, but can this be??
