It would be extremely difficult. First of all the right hand drive thing would be a deal killer if you want to drive it here. Parts would be a PIA since they offer a lot of different engines there that they don't offer here. Anything that has to be certified by the DOT (tires, windows, brake systems, emissions, etc) would have to be changed. You do know that the "good" prices you're seeing are in pounds, which are roughly worth two US dollars. Unless you're willing to buy site unseen you have to go there to look at it. Throw in shipping on top of that ($1000/$2000???) and they aren't so cheap. Finally, Britain didn't invent rust but they perfected it. It's a very, very humid place and rust is a constant battle.
