Olympic Torch Shame


Recommended Posts

It reads to me that we seem to be parading a foreign car rather than a British car.

British cars?

 

Rolls Royce and Bentley Motors are owned by Volkswagen.

 

BMW bought Rover and then sold it to the Phoenix Consortium. They went bust and BMW subsequently sold the Rover marque to Ford where it is currently defunct.

 

Land Rover and Jaguar are owned by the Indian company Tata Motors.

 

Unless the torch were accompanied by a Morgan or Caterham 7, the best you can hope for is a British assembled car rather than one made by a British company.
