A month ago B.M.C. and Leyland merged their interests in a £400 million company called British Leyland. It is now the sixth largest motor manufacturer in the world, making every kind of vehicle from Minis to double-deck buses.

He became Britain's top exporter, sold buses to Cuba, took over Standard Triumph in 1961, and Rover five years later.
