At least for now.

Exports paused while Land Rover figures out what to do about the new 25% tariffs on imported vehicles.

Have no real choice really, guess Trump is expecting them to build a factory over there instead.
Actually I don't know if he thinks at all.

Tariffs apply to parts also.
Watched a video from America about making a F150.
Part starts from Mexico to USA to Canada back to USA, imagine the tariffs on that.

Dun't fink it would be worth setting up a factory in merka. Cost v yesrs to get back the investment ain't worth it. Especially when other countries production lines slow down a bit.
