We carry loads of them containerised to India, Pakistan, Malaysia, Kenya, Mauritius, Tanzania (I visited the official LR dealership in Dar 5 years ago, I’ve never seen so many RRS and Evoques in a dealership compound, new or used) Cameroon, Nigeria, Benin, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Angola and Namibia. Cars with oil and fuel in them are classed as hazardous cargo so I get all the packing info for every single one. Most of the used ones originate from the UK to the former colonies where they still drive on the left, the places where they drive on the right seem to get a lot of ex French and German cars. Fullfats are harder to get into a container without damage, same with D3/D4 and Freelander 2- they are too wide or too high. I once posted a photo here of a line up of RRS’s in in the import compound in the port of Port Klang, Malaysia most still on their UK plates. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
