It was probably a case of keeping the workshops busy , plus, the regular army may have been envisaging a slow roll-out of the new Land Rovers over a few years. I've been told, by more than one former CMF (army reserve) members, that some of the jeeps soldiered on with the part time CMF into the early 1960s.
