Just noticed you can get 2 year old imported Hummer H3's for about £20k. A lot of car for your money - very tempting!!

I'm just wondering how annoying left hand drive would be on a day to day basis?

Only the H1 was availavle as a diesel AFAIK. The other two have been petrol only.
Expected sub 20 mpg, sub 100mph and close to 10 seconds on the 0-60.
I just dont see the point? If you want a big 4x4 get a decent land rover. More expensive but a million times better.

i thought these new ones were made with a derv as well? meant to be more practical hence the smaller size (disco 5 ish iirc) and diesel engines available

A lot of car for the money? Shite running costs, many of UK roads will struggle to take such a vehicle (try driving that around town/roads with cars parked either side) and try parking it! And if you really want a Hummer the H1 or H2 is the one to go for.
