Hi Gwampa
Yes it is a right hand drive, 1999 model although actually registered in 2000. Vauxhall (part of GM) imported these over a couple of years so very few remaining. Mine has been converted to run on LPG, have you seen the price of petrol over here? Trouble I have is that there is no dealer support in the UK. I have found a firm that can obtain most parts, and I have imported some from the US. I am used to doing this as my other car is a Chrysler (sorry) PT Cruiser quite modified. Biggest import for that was chrome bumper covers. Cruisers are very popular over here for modding, if you are interested have a look at www.ukcruisers.net.
Can drive the Blazer around for ages without seeing another one. Bought mine after a motorhome holiday in Michigan when my friend over there lent me his. Did have difficulty finding one.

Why am I not suprised! Brits going retro. Wonder how the HHR is accepted there? With the demise of the Cruiser it could be the coming thing. Sorry about the gas (petrol) prices there too. For parts, ever think about on-line (ebay) salvage yards here in the states?
