I think you misunderstood the person who told you that. For every house with a Jag and Range Rover in the driveway, there's another still British car jacked up on cinderblocks in the driveway. They're not very reliable, so a lot of people buy a couple so that they have one to drive while the second one is in the shop. Or the DIYers cannabalize the second car to keep the first one running.
