Yes and no or maybe. British cars do have some BSP and BST - British  
Standard Taper or is it BSPT?  However, I don't believe BSP threads are the  same 
as Whitworth threads though I've not checked.  I think you'll find the  
early steering rack, which originated on the Morris Minor has Whitworth  
fittings.  Maybe the dampers have Whitworth threads - Peter C will know,  probably 
all this stuff is in a book when it ought to be in my head but it's  
late.......
