SECAM anyone?

I think it was mostly a case of the bureaucracy taking a long time to pick a standard.

That'll be the British way - too much red tape and wasted money. Tony Tit Blair is planning to axe a rather large amount of civil servants soon - and I can bet it WON'T be the inaffective middle management that goes - you know, those muppets that have brought our NHS to its knees...

As for British cars - we don't have many - they're either all GM, BMW or VW I think there's only Morgan and TVR left now and I bet they're owned by the Japanese...

At least we can't lay claim to Citroen (ha ha ha!!!) or FIAT (Found in a tip). Or for that matter Ford (Fix or repair daily/found often at roadside dead). On that note though, I wish they'd bring back a 35 anniversary replica of the Mk1 UK Ford Capri - medallion man car yes, but there's something about it!
