They have tons, Aston Martin, Jaguar, Rolls Royce, Lotus, McLaren, Bentley

Except almost all of them are now owned by Western European, Indian, or Chinese car companies lmao

Aren't most of those fancier brands too? I can't imagine the average brit riding around in an Aston Martin.

Yeah they're all fancy brands. Most common to see are jags and maybe the occasional really old Bentley. Land rovers also

Those aren’t car brands, those are weird niche rich people products. Comparing Jaguar to Toyota a difference in scale becomes a difference in kind, they basically aren’t in the same industry.

Yeah, this is like comparing the market of Casio with Rolex. They have nothing in common, except that their products give the time.
