True, Land Rover will soon stop making its discovery in Solihull and, sadly, tasks will be lost. however let’s at least put this unfavorable news in context. two hours up the road, Land Rover Halewood is in impolite health, as well as employment prospects there have seldom been brighter. That’s because of the recent statement that the much more popular, inexpensive as well as available discovery sport will still be made in the north west. So as opposed to the perception you may have been left with, world-class SUVs using discovery badges will still be developed in Blighty.

And it gets better, since the business has likewise just verified that the new version of the even much more inexpensive as well as available Evoque will be developed at Halewood, too. Inexplicably, this excellent news has been downplayed or ignored by numerous media outlets. Yet as my guy on the inside at Land Rover told me, if Nissan of Japan did something similar to this in Sunderland, it’d be a monetary Times front page story.
