At least they were "bought" first (we hope).
Most of the Land-Rovers end up some distances east of the Rhine (allegedly).
Some years ago I had a number of Bedford
Rascal vans. One day when cruising around Edmonton (you know, the way you do), I became aware that I was being followed. So I turned down a side street, and sure enough, the guy kept coming after me.
I stopped, and the guy pulled in behind. Yes - you've guessed it, he was after the van. It turned out that he had a "side line" in shipping Rascals out to Lagos.
I did not take him up on his offer, mainly because I was (at that time) keen to preserve some semblance of a "Rascal market" here in the UK!
