Since the mid Seventies a steady decline in UK Car manufacturing has seen the loss of may prestigious marques, with Car Factories closing, the demise of many companies and brands and the wholesale acquisition of much of the industry by foreign companies. However we still retain an enormous automotive manufacturing base, core design and engineering knowledge which in recent years has bucked the trend and keeps Britain at the forefront of the World Car Industry with factories in this country producing 1.5M units per annum.
Factor in supply companies, spares, after-market and associated car related products to discover a healthy, vibrant market sector which still leads the world in many aspects.
British Car Design and Engineering expertise is still in global demand. After many years of what seemed like terminal decline we're proud that, although many may not be owned by Brits, the following companies fly the flag in manufacturing cars in these Isles and contribute to £30 billion in exports.
Aston Martin Land Rover Jaguar Arial Honda Rolls Royce Bentley
Ginetta Vauxhall Toyota Noble McLaren Nissan Morgan Mini
Radical Westfield Lotus Caterham Ultima
