Time was when ....

You could buy new RHD vehicles in Dubai. LandRovers were popuar. Keep it for at least year to avoid UK duty. Then for only £1,000 cash, Cargolux would put it in a 747 freighter. The owner + 3 pax could go 'upstairs' (bring your own booze and sarnies). Drop off at Stanstead. Nice little sideline for Cargolux who would otherwise have been going back empty.
