    Usually blamed on the workers. Though management were equally(if not more so) to blame. They did not place their products in TV/films and foreign companies took up the slack. The foreign companies tended to have better marketing to the public too. The cars came with extra features for little extra cost.

      Seeing as no one has ever left the EU - how can anyone be an expert either for or against?

          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            The UK never had a *real* car industry. Nobody was interested design. Strikes? Oh yeah we like them.

                      Robots increasingly make cars.

                      We need to make the robots.
