Who else makes cars in volume here (not stuff like Bentley, Lotus and Caterham)?
JLR do, and Vauxhall does somewhere I think? Is there anyone else. I think I read Ford would likely leave Dagenham.

We must have lost a massively significant part of that industry now.

JLR (who are moving production to Hungary), Nissan and Honda (who are moving production to Japan). That's it, I think. Vauxhall only make the Vivaro van in Luton (not for much long, I suspect) and Ford only make engines at Dagenham these days. I suspect the largest car manufacturer in the UK in 10 years' time will be Morgan.

They make the Astra in Ellesmere Port as well. Although there were mass walkouts in November so possibly not for much longer also.
