I’m wondering how many British car makers will be bankrupt or bought out by the end of the year? Aston (arguably that’s already happened)? McLaren? Williams?

Yeah, something like that. Plus if you’ve followed the Jay Em on cars YT reporting, if what he is saying is true it doesn ’t look good.

All of them, and probably 2 or 3 American ones, as well.

Williams is not making road cars.

And on a “positive” note, Nissan has not planned to close any of its UK plant.

Are there any left? We used to say that Morgan was the last locally owned maker left standing but now they ’ve sold out too.
