What a surprise ..... not . The first of many global companies who don’t buy into the UK’s brave new future out of the EU . Let’s see if they actually re-tool the UK facility in th long run . 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

I hate what they’ve done, but can’t blame them really. Why should they commit wholeheartedly to the UK in the current circumstances?

LR used to build vehicles in Spain, Egypt, Turkey. Now they are building in China, South America, Austria and Slovakia. They've always had an international arm. However in the past they never imported the foreign cars back to the UK. Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone

This has nothing to do with brexit. It takes years of planning to build a new factory never mind building the thing . This has been on the cards for years .. brexit is an excuse. Do it now ! Your a long time dead !! |

I think the reason they are moving all of the D5 production to Slovakia is already explained in the article
