The article wasn't referring to the auto manufacturers, but to their suppliers. UK has a vast infrastructure of car-related businesses that have the know-how to develop parts that the manufacturers don't.
Most mass manufacturers these days construct the engine block and chassis and buy the rest of the parts from suppliers.
Some go to the extent of assigning the manufacturing to other factories (Porsche for Boxster, although this is not a mass manufacturer)
