Importing a Alphard
It's all fairly simple. Import using an agent. There is one in Hallen, Avonmouth, Bristol. You will need the speedo converted, a rear fog light and that's about it besides registering it with the dvla. All the forms are easy ish to complete. It's the tax rating you might have to fight and getting it EU approved for emissions to get a lower tax bracket.

Correct Tyre Pressures
So, if they are not on the drivers door post they may be in the filler cap. for the 255 / 55 / r17 is 2.3 but as for the 215 / 60 / r17 seems a bit odd for a alphy. I'd find that sticker if you can.

Alphard Royal Lounge
All alphards seats move on runners. back and forth. I would go for a 3L at least if towing a caravan.

Increasing ground clearance
There was someone who did a suspension lift. But you need to notify the insurance company as it's not at the standard height. I shall dig around and get back to you on the suspension type.

rear bush suspension arms
If it's failed I would ask them to show you. most legit garages will happily show you. If the other garage is dodgy then you can actally get your money back and report them to the dvla for giving fake certs.

re mapping
Not for the 2.4 i'm afriad. if it was the 3L you can but the 2.4 is harder to remap and so no-one i know of does it.

Service interval warning
Push and hold the mileage reset button while turning the key into the “on” position. You will see the odometer digits countdown to zero and once they all are at zero, the maintenance light has reset and you may release the button
