Not directly no so only a broad answer. When we were looking for Bellerophon the idea of an imported car was raised by our nearest main dealer as we were relatively firm on an automatic. He suggested that he would be able to support it without warranty as about 90 percent of parts are identical. However our fleet insurance weren't impressed as to quote "a car doesn't work with 90%of it's parts " and consequently their premium would more than double to reflect that. So after much deliberation we passed on an automatic in favour of a UK car on the basis that the increase in premium rate over the lifetime of the car wasn't worth the convenience of an auto. I'm fairly sure in the short term I will probably regret that decision as I will be either stalling Bellerophon by forgetting about the clutch or stamping the floor board in Temeraire as my brain attempts to spot the difference but I'm sure that will pass.

Thank you so much @Lambert.

The reason why I was asking is I'd like to buy a better front brake setup for my JB74.

So, it's a parts related matter.

BTW, if you have an European supplier for better performance discs + pads, I'd be eternally grateful.
