I think it will still stay here, at least in the short term.

We lost UK ownership of most of our tech firms years ago.

I worked for our (late) major computer firm, it went to the Japanese years ago, but still is big in Britain, although must admit that I watch the Japanese economy, sometimes nervously, as they pay my pension. FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)

I think we worked for the same outfit and I have the same concerns. I recall a conversation where I took a few Japs in my FL1 and they were having trouble pronouncing Landrover, nearest they got was something like RandLover so no chance of them buying JLR 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
