My last proper Brit car was a Triumph Stag. I think with the
exception of Aston Martin all our cars are bought up by foreigners.
Cars are still designed and made here in vast numbers.

I have never had a Hilman Minx. They were always lemons.

Stags were troublesome too. Many older British cars have
returned to the earth from which they sprang.
