Made in the UK
Driving British Success Forward
Brands such as the Mini, Aston Martin, MG and Rolls-Royce are synonymous with the UK. In the first of our 'Made in the UK' series, Andrew Jarvis charts the history of car-making in the UK, remembers some classic screen appearances and celebrates life on the road
UK car brands are recognised and admired worldwide. Many established brands, including Mini, Jaguar, Aston Martin, TVR, AC, MG, Lotus, Land Rover and Rolls-Royce, embody traditional values such as reliability, elegance and refinement. These qualities remain but the leading brands have also incorporated the latest high-tech engineering and reinvented themselves for the modern age.
The qualities and values associated with the UK car brands - tradition, innovation, integrity, style, and craftsmanship - reflect some of the best that the UK has to offer. There is much to celebrate and admire in the ground-breaking and pioneering motoring achievements of the last century and also much to anticipate in the future of the most dynamic and established brands.
