I lived in England from 1959 to 1963, my dad was Air Force, and we had a '59
Hillman Minx four door, blue and vanilla 2-tone.  It was a great car ans
served us well for the four years we had it.  We sold it to another Air
Force guy before we came back stateside.

Having as Hillman stateside is quite a novelty and I believe would be worth
the money.

When I was stationed in Holy Loch, Scotland ('72 to '74) my first Navy
enlistment I had a 1954 Triumph TR-2 with the right hand drive.  I almost
brought it back with me except I hit the back end of a Land Rover and drove
the fan through the radiator along with other major body damage.  Ah, to be
young and foolish and ruin another collectible!
