You may be surprised, or not, that a number of British Car Manufacturers are no longer actually owned by the Brits.
The British car industry has been in decline over the last couple of decades, and many manufacturers like Rover have long gone bankrupt and disappeared altogether. Many others have been sold to other companies or investors, but are still being made in Britain.
Aston Martin is owned by two investments companies from Kuwait, Investment Dar and Adeem Investments. They are being built in Gaydon, Warwickshire.
Bentley Motors is owned by Volkswagen and built in Crewe.
