Best of British

We fly the flag with eight of the finest new cars money can buy – all of which are assembled in factories on these shores!

Think the British car industry is dead and buried? Think again.

While the huge UK manufacturing giants of the past are long gone, many motor makers now choose to put their finest models together on these shores – and many of these are the best in class!

What they all have in common, though, is that they enable you to make a patriotic purchase without fear of opting for a sub-standard model.

The star of the show has to be the MINI.

We’ve got two more legendary British badges represented by the Jaguar XF and Aston Martin V8 Roadster, while the Land Rover Freelander 2 is also a national treasure.

The long-lived Lotus Elise lines up alongside some big-selling models from Honda, Toyota and Nissan to complete our illustrious group. While recession-fuelled factory shutdowns are in full swing, it’s time to take a look at just how capable the British car industry really is.
