From my very limited experience of LHD so far:
I definitely prefer changing gears with the right hand, much more precise and a bit faster. I dont like holding the steering wheel with left hand when changing gear I dont like being far from the centre of the road. Haven't had a problem overtaking buses, yet... There are some advantages and some disadvantages to sitting on the left. I'll have to do a lot of European driving to justify it. 26mpg is very good for the auto, is yours lpg?

Brilliant!
 Well, we agree on the origins, but the evolution the the RHS is faciniating.

Having said that, unfortunately the reality is that my calculations show I'm averaging 23.5mpg.

My normal mpg for long hauls with a high pace is about 22-24 with 3 people and luggage, aka the family.  But as i said, for everyday driving to and from kindergarden and work i average 15mpg...
