In Bombay during my childhood, those were the three most common cars along with Hillman. MG & Triumph were perhaps more expensive. Then came the infamous Fiat and they took over the entire market.

And Triumph was also a top motorcycle.

BTW I notice that India has revolutionized the English game of cricket. The game is now a big money sport approaching the level of the NFL with dancing girls and bollywood spectacle.

If you having yet read "Ballroom of the Skies" by John D. McDonald, you should.
An alternate world speculation of the nature of things in general, with India the foremost world power, iirc.
