Well, one guy is retired. He has a lot of spare time.

About those two, yeah, I knew we forgot some.

I think it is. One of the guys said MG stands for "Morris Garage."

Indeed it does.

Caterham

[m&m-bravo]

..well done..!! .even I as an European couldn't name so many...

..there is also Caterham (..probably the only one with an history, still exists and wich is still British... )

..and isn't Marcos also English..?

[bruxell]

Is there a reason that some of the names are for companies and others for specific models???

I'm going with:
1. Ginetta
2. Marcos
3. TVR
4. AC
5. Vanwall
6. BRM
7. Austin (...wierd that someone mentioned Austin-Healy.)
8. Unipower
9. Peel (Which I believe was made on the Isle of Mann, so not quite Engilsh.)
10. Talbot
11. Woosley
12. Squire
13. Mclaren (The company is entierly based in England.)
14. ERA
15. Ascari

That's it off the top of my head, but I know I'm only scratching the surface.
