Of course the guy didn't think of it (being LHD only) coz he's Singaporean. Singaporeans are stupid. And the Sing's law is also stupid. Can't drive a car with the steering wheel on the other side. What kind of a law is that. U can drive a LHD in the UK, u can drive a LHD in Malaysia (which is just accross the straits), u can drive a RHD in the US. But Singapore is dumb enough not to allow it.
TopGear originally started on the BBC in the 1960s - it was known as 'Wheel Base' - stopped in the late 1990s, when Clarkson went off for a year or so to have his own chat show...
So Tiff Needell and vicki Butler-Henderson then went over to the then recently created Channel5 to produce 5th Gear.. Then TopGear came back
It's amazing the number of North Americans / Canadians who see Tiff Needell and shout "5th Gear not TopGear!"
the owner wasn't stupid.. he probably was fully aware of the fact that he cant drive it. and that's the beauty of it, owning a car you dreamed of and pushed you so hard to work even if you cant drive it around. MANY enthusiasts here in the philippines have the rarest porches. parked only in his garden cuz he cant drive ( doesnt want to) one guy has 14 limited special edition porsches with only 100+ km on them all parked in his garden where he drinks his cofffee/ scotch every morning smiling..
he can ship it to whatever place he wants and drive it in whatever circuit or street in the world so he is not stupid he just lives in a place that can drive it but money is the solution for this little problems.

the guy that bought tshi car has to be a moron.
lets buy a car so i can look at it . wow
it would make more sense to move where you live to drive it rather than do this
its preposterous and i would not mind if he woke up and it was gone .
it would do the car justice to be somewhere else.anywhere else

Cool stuff. I'm from Singapore and it's the first time I've seen a GT1 here. It's rare stuff. Sadly he can't drive it outside.
