Also import MR's were only in 280 and 310bhp variants.
The car is definitely a UK car. Hope this clears the debate up.

Incorrect. My car was imported into the UK in Sept 2003, look where the foglight is... it all depends on where the importer chooses to put the foglight when going for SVA. UK cars from the the 7 or 8s onwards have the foglight incorporated into the rear cluster replacing one of the reversing lights.
