Wheelbase: No Minis in Manhattan?

on BBC Two England

Gordon Wilkins and Maxwell Boyd cover the world of American motoring.

The motor industry is Britain's top exporter, but in the United States in 1965 Volkswagen alone sold five times as many cars as all the British manufacturers put together. Do our sales and service methods fail to attract the American customers?
Wheelbase questions the men behind the New York showrooms of B.M.C., Jaguar, Rolls-Royce and Rover.
