Well even if they tripled the purchase price and built it in the UK it would still be just about the cheapest new car on the market! I suspect that with the teaming millions of potential car owners in India, European safety legislation would probably price it out of the market by the time they have engineered it to have a zillion airbags, ABS and DSC etc. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

I heard on the radio today that VW have some spare capacity at their Crewe factory too, now how collectable would a TaTa Nano built on the Bentley production line be? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Believe so, but that factory has always been Bentley hasn't it, even since before VW took over? Do they now also build VWs there?
