    Is it just me or is every bloody thing in this country going for "export"? You see a nice little truck, its already sold for export. You are looking for a tractor, they're all gone for export. You need a spare rim for your car, they cant be got second-hand anymore, they're a big seller for export. Its a shame, an absolute disgrace that perfectly serviceable machines and vehicles are leaving this country, forcing people to buy new, and squeezing the small man into making-do with dodgy repairs and sub-standard parts. GRRR!!!!!!

    They wouldn't be exported if there was a good enough market for them at home.

    Methinks you were looking for something for half-nothing OP.

    Actually I agree with the OP. Looking at 4x4s recently and this was the story every where we went.

    Scrappers send stuff to Africa afaik,but there must be a cut off point where it's better to sell than export.

    Yeah, probably at a loss and all, just to piss people off.
