LOL...sorry to year that though. The Brits may do some things right (although examples allude me), but building cars is NOT one of them.

Ever hear of Lucas Lighting, a POHM company?

Their nickname was "Lucas, prince of darkness" for the renowned quality of their products.

At least the rover Jeremy drove being chased by the challenger tank held together. I loved that segment.
