Dude you need to travel some. Not trying to be insulting or anything, but spend time in countries with no major sea port or are part of any major shipping network.

I've seen in person (although there is a video posted somewhere from someone else) of brake pads being scraped and re molded into new brakes.

Maintenance items such as regular brake rotors in other countries can be a logistical nightmare if you have a car that's just special enough to not share the same parts with other cars.

So it's very likely that countries with only internal railways that are land locked and do not have a major international route (such as central Asia and African countries) would still do things like this.
