You certainly try very hard, and succeed I might add.

The UK car industry hasn’t been this weak since 1956. And it’s losing the EV race


UK car manufacturing hit a 66-year low in 2022, as the closure of two plants.

Figures published Thursday by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT), an industry body, showed that the number of passenger cars made in Britain declined 10% year-on-year to hit 775,014.

UK car manufacturing hit a 66-year low in 2022, as the closure of two plants, a global shortage of semiconductors and the effect of Covid lockdowns in China on auto supply chains crippled output.

Regardless of the economic dynamics involved, the motor car aficionado has to really lament the decline of the UK's once vibrant auto industry.
So many iconic models once emerged from it.

For automakers, the EV surge is everything everywhere all at once
DETROIT (Reuters) - The surprise leadership shuffle on Thursday at Toyota Motor Corp, renewed urgency at Renault and Nissan Motor Co to restructure their alliance and Elon Musk’s declaration that Tesla Inc will be the world’s No. 1 automaker by a wide margin have one thing in common: What once defined the global auto industry’s center is no longer holding.
The announcement that Akio Toyoda will step down as chief executive of the world’s top-selling automaker on April 1 came just hours after Musk used a quarterly earnings call to declare that Tesla was now the auto industry’s leader in profitability and manufacturing efficiency - the crown Toyota held for three decades.
