Though it has the square headlights  (did all MY T3's made for German
roads have round headlights?) I'm curious if it was imported from
Germany later in it's life.

The speedo looks like it has KPH and MPH markings but I can't really
tell. Even if it does, not sure if that's an indicator of it being
imported, say, from Germany. Then again, I think the seat belt warning
light is in English.

Neil.
