Anyone's guess but the US price would have to be a guide. Wouldn't be worth any more here and being a left hooker possibly less when you go to sell because you'd be selling to a smaller market not many of whom would buy a LHD.
Hard one to answer without seeing the Bus.

21 and 23 window lefties are not worth as much as the RHD sibblings.
Why? most 21 and 23 window buyers, want the micro bus because they want to lug their family or friends around. Problem is, they have to get in and out of the car in the traffic. That is, the doors are not on the cerb side for safe exiting and getting in......and there is less RHD 21 and 23 window buses in the world.
Myself, I have no problems with lefties in general....

If I were looking, I'd check the prices of the US ones and add $10k for shipping, heartache and little fixes you were not expecting because you have not seen it in person (all buses need little fixes... might be a few more if you haven't seen it though).
