Personally I would think there are a few components of the FV432 that could also be entered in such a contest of over-engineering.

How about the FV432 5 pound (unit of weight, not cost, as the cost likely runs into the hundreds) hi/lo beam dimmer switch unit. A well built unit which includes a data plate, and a modifications plate, befitting of......well I can't think what it would be befitting of.

Here in North America we simply throw away a bad dimmer switch, not send it to a depot for modifications and overhaul.

I am afraid I do not have photos of this one. I availed myself of FV432 stuff years ago, although there may be a bit of it out in the shed yet.
