@parch66 Unions, lack of serious competition for decades, favoring short-term profits to impress Wall Street, and the wrong sort of government intervention.

@49Shortvid by 2017 every car in europe will be chinese
-
So what's killed the American motor industry?
-
@srspower You missed the bit about Britian being offered VW, and they didn't want it because they considered it didn't have a future.
-
Its not anti americanism it is merely a statement of fact. After ww2 america spent lots of money nation building in japan and germany. Britian had borrowed lots of money to pay for the war. Money, like i said, britian on recently paid back to america.
Look it up.
-
@srspower Ah, so it's ALL THE USA'S FAULT again, is it?
Got any references for your assertions?
-
Clarksons explanation is bollocks. The reason Japan and germany started making loads of good cars is because of MASSIVE investment from the USA. Which went in to the car industry.
Britian on the other hand was crippled by debt to the US and only paid it back a few years ago.

The japanese came to britain and learned how not to do it.
-
Clarkson's Car years is a great series, wish I could find it available in higher quality on line.
