Theres a lot of misinformation being spread here about British cars.
Millions of people drive them in Britain with no more problems than with
any other type of car. I lived in Britain for 30 years, driving mostly
British cars, and had no more trouble with the electrics than I have had
here with American cars or my Vanagon.
You may be interested to know that Rolls-Royce uses Lucas electrics.
