I think cars from the UK would be about the closest match when it comes to
meeting ADR's for something that's actually designed to meet UK
regulations
(which are probably EU-wide ones these days?).
I've wondered about this myself since I keep an eye on the Caterham
website,
etc. and have been curious to know if anyone in Oz has a Caterham that's
been imported here and built locally then complied/insured/registered, or
imported fully-built and put through the approval/insurance/rego process.
