Have a look behind the headlamp assembly for any levers that can switch the beam
Chances are not, as it is a Japanese produced vehicle and only for RHD market I would guess -
I would be tempted to part with it and cut your losses
Let someone else go through the expense and time of doing it up and start afresh

Sounds like you may have picked up some contaminated fuel and this is filling the canister with water content
I would get this attended to sooner than later but not sure if you can reach below the filter to drain it down yourself? -
First thought is a wheel bearing (probably Nearside Front - if it disappears when you steer left)
Definitely worth having that checked first -
Sometimes if the front brake pads have been replaced at some point in time then worth checking that the pad(s) not moving due to part of the fitting kit missing

See the post below yours

Unless you can get the alignment altered to compensate for the UK camber and bias it slightly over one way?
Otherwise, tyres may make a difference possibly? -
Halford always have a good stock and may be able to order one or even have something similar to fit as they just stick over the old broken mirror glass
-
Makes sense as the German brands also did that around that era as there were court cases when anyone got trapped in the window going up

Do they come through the audio system?
If so, do you have the audio settings on fader getting more sound to the rear than the front?

Not sure as its not available in the United Kingdom (so far)

Hi Shelley
Has any work been carried out on the car recently?
...and is the battery in good condition?
-
I would start by looking at the bulbs in the trailer board
If you have a wrong type of bulb then this can cause the problem

Hi....welcoe to the Club
Good to have you onboard!
-
I would take each component off individually and inspect then reassemble and see if that produces any results
Time consuming but I'm sure you'll find a defect somewhere in there
-
You sure it is not the wiring coming through from the roof to the tailgate that is broken
Pull back the rubber boot that is surrounding the wiring and check the wires

Some tyres can make a horrendous noise but it may also be the tyre profile that is picking up and transmitting more noise (e.g. lower profile tyres)
Only way to determine is when you need new tyres you can search by noise ratings and try to find the lowest
-
Is it possible to get it repaired (e.g. is it metal or plastic construction)?
-
Try DemonTweeks as they tend to carry quite a range of cold air intake parts

Thank Bazzer. was on holiday abroad for the Coronation but caught some of it on TV in between visits to the bar
Hope you had a nice relaxing weekend?

A quick eBay search is showing some rails but mainly cross bars
-
Rubbing back the affected area and filling possibly?
As long as it is not within a certain distance from a structural part of the car and is not too large then this repair should be acceptable -
My main concern in what you have described is the high pitch wining noise .... this could be an indicator of the problem
Do you know roughly where the noise is coming from?
I've just joined, but I'm not very tech savvy....
