Wheelbase: Why Not Buy British?

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Gordon Wilkins covers the world of motoring
with Judith Jackson

British motorists continue to pay a high price for foreign cars. One reason is a long waiting-list for some of the cheaper British models. Are there others? Secondhand Mercedes and Volkswagens sell at a good price, but do all Continental cars keep their value? Does the foreign car buyer pay extra for qualities he can't find in our own cars, or is it just a question of wanting to be different?
