Jaguar and Land Rovers to be built for first time in China

[BDG]

How so? The factory is being built there to deal with local demand. It is stupid to build a vehicle in the UK then put it on a ship to the other side of the world. Most of the major vehicle manufacturers have factories in China, if JLR did not go down that route they would be cutting themselves off from a market.

It may also mean we are still able to buy Defenders - one of the reasons the current Defender is being discontinued is its production cost.
