Oh, is that all? There were a LOT of cars made in Britain. Now they are all
made by German and American companies.
I think this question is a bit beyond the scope of this list, but there are
many resources on the 'net, and at the library. Go to www.amazon.com and
search for "british cars". I got 64 books listed including The Complete
Catalogue of British Cars 1895-1975 by David Culshaw, Peter Horrobin, for
$29.95.
Also, an Alta Vista search gave me 9,740 hits on "british cars". MGs are
still the best, with Austin Healy (Sprite in particular) a close second.
Good luck.
