This is encouraging.

Car production in the UK in 2013 rose to its best level since 2007, according to the trade body the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders.

The SMMT is predicting the UK could become Europe's third biggest car maker, behind Germany and Spain.

It says carmakers in the UK could break all time production records by 2017.

Nissan made more than 500,000 cars in Sunderland while Jaguar Land Rover increased production by 11%.

What a shame none of them are no longer UK owned But at least it dispels the myth that manufacturing is finished in the UK.
