Is there a Castor Kit for the X5 E70

Hi, Wondering if any one knows of a castor kit for the new X5. I am in Australia and as you know we drive on the right side of the road, that is the lefthand side.

As with the Mercedes cars & BMW cars which are mainly designed with castor to suite driving on the righthand side of the road, Mercedes now supply in Australia 2 new bolts that go through the front strut assembly bar. These redesigned bolts pulls the front lefthand wheel forward and pushes the righthand front back giving you the correct castor.

The problem with the X5 in Australia is the lefthand wheels (front & rear) are closer together than the righthand side wheels and this needs to be reversed for cars that drive on the lefthand side of the road to counter the camber of the road.

This also must be problem in England?

Anyone?
