The downfall of British car manufacturing was down to the Labour government deciding it wanted to nationalise car manufacturing. So it amalgamated this list of British car makers. Austin, Daimler, Jaguar, Leyland, Land Rover, Morris, MG, Riley, Rover, Vanden Plas & Wolseley. All came under the banner of BL. British Leyland. before this nationalisation, the UK had car makers who were building pretty decent cars. But they were separate companies and they all wanted to better the other companies who were their main competition. But once they were merged together, the competition went out the window because they're not competing against each other anymore and the result was quality fell through the floor. So a lot of the BL cars in this video were not that bad because of looks. They were bad because they were built with zero care or competition to make a good built car. And, ironically, this also lead to the complete downfall of the DMC DeLorean which lasted for just over a year. Interesting looks and exterior build, let down with items taken from the British leyland parts bin. So it was always going to fail.

Blame Tony Benn for telling successful Leyland truck company to join forces with BMC in 1967. Yes, it saved some historic car companies for a few years. But if this hadn't happened, we might still have either Rover/Triumph still making cars, and a commercial vehicle industry to be proud off instead of asset stripping, foreign companies. I am thinking of you BMW…

It was built when Austin were under the nationalised name of British Leyland. You can thank Labour for destroying the British Car makers of the 1970's who in the 1960's and earlier, were making pretty good cars. Read my comment, if you wish, that's somewhere in this list of comments for more details on BL ;-))...

I had two of the GFT fast back versions of the Subaru coupe (The GL was known as the GSR in the NZ market) back in the 90s - they weren't pretty but cool by being unusual The proportions were out because of the flat four FWD layout meant the front wheels were further back than usual. Loved them.

Always an AMC product, Reliant Robin and now BL's Princess, which I think was underrated, before it's time. Saw one in a BL dealer in north London in 1975 and thought it was an attractive car. Also the Austin Allegro, used to own one from 1989 till I sold it in 1992 when I replaced it with a 1963 Humber Hawk. Still miss it, it was one of my most reliable cars. It has aged much better than the Ford Escort Mk2 of 1975 and the Vauxhall Viva HC too!

OK, second comment here. The Bricklin SV-1 was an iconic car, the main problem, as you mention, was build quality. He decided to build in Nova Scotia (I think? An eastern province anyway) and hired employees that were unfamiliar with how to build a car. The result was unfortunately a disaster for the company.
@grahamepigney8565
Ай бұрын
Some of this commenterry is rubbish. British car manufacturers had been indulging in badge engineering since the the '50s/'60s. It isn't suprising that Americans don't understand the Reliant Robin, it WAS a cheap and affordable car for people who couldn't afford the cost of ownership of a car from one of the more conventional manufacturers. Even the Princess was not as bad as depicted. My father owned one and I drove it, a comfortable drive and with the 6 cylinder engine fairly spirited. It did cry out for a rear hatch which it got in its Ambassador incarnation in 1982. The worst aspects of both the Princess and Ambassador was the tacky velour interior trim and poor build quality. But these problems were fairly unniversal in mid-range US, UK, European models at the time.

I *like* the design of the Gremlin except it was too big. I don't know how well their interpretation of it was but the truncated rear end was actually aerodynamics inspired.
