what`s the old saying "Bad news travels fast", may she rest in pieces

[Rods2]

I think a bigger threat these days is from Eastern Europe, where Omegas are much more expensive than here and are treated at the luxury end of cars. I'm sure many are stolen, exported and then stripped to keep other Omegas running. Where legal importation is very expensive in some countries, I'm sure some are stolen to order, illegally imported, converted to LHD and cloned to replace accident damaged or scrapped cars. 

Would they even bother with that? 

I'm sure that if you go far enough east to the 'Stans' for example there are plenty of RHD's going about.

Yes, because it is relatively easy to do and some Eastern European countries do not allow the registration of RHD cars, so as a clone it would stand out like a sore thumb.

In the Ukraine, the corrupt police will use the slightest excuse to extract money from any opportunity, even more so if a law has been broken.

In terms of the most corrupt officials in Ukraine:

1. Police.
2. Tax officials.
3. Border Guards.

That explains why Putin hasn't crossed the border in force... He literally can't afford to.

Russia is not better. Corruption in both countries starts at the very top. EU helping Ukraine get rid of it with their free trade agreement and the election of a new generation of politicians is what scares Putin as it might look an attractive option to Russian voters and Putin certainly has no intentions of allowing that. When people in Russia vote the wrong way, it is not unusual for the number of votes to exceed the number of registered voters in a district, once the Putin correction factor has been added.

My comment was tongue firmly in cheek, but nothing you have said surprises me
